About

The Circular Fuels project aims to produce sustainable aviation fuels through advancements in renewable energy and technological innovation. By enhancing the speed of transfer from fossil fuels to renewable energy, Circular Fuels will address the unwanted externalities associated with unsustainable aviation fuels. Circular Fuels will analyse the sustainability aspects of the technology, and it will give policy recommendations for successful implementation by introducing commercially viable and cost-effective solutions.

The Circular Fuels project will positively impact stakeholders in the energy industry, biomass producers, solar and aviation companies, circular economists, EU Green New Deal policymakers, farmers and municipalities, and aviation passengers.
