Microsoft Corp., Alaska Air Group and carbon-transformation company Twelve have agreed to collaborate on advancing the market for sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) to include fuels derived from recaptured carbon dioxide and renewable energy.
Through the first-of-its-kind agreement, Twelve, Alaska and Microsoft will work to advance production and use of Twelve's E-Jet, a low-carbon jet fuel produced by a power-to-liquids process leveraging the company's carbon transformation technology. This technology uses only renewable energy, water and carbon dioxide as inputs to transform carbon dioxide into a variety of critical chemicals and materials conventionally made from fossil fuels.
The companies will work toward a demonstration flight using E-Jet®, and toward supplying the fuel to address some of Microsoft's business travel in Alaska.
