Gevo

Net-Zero 1

Gevo’s Net-Zero 1 project is designed to convert corn-based isobutanol/ethanol into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) using its proprietary alcohol-to-jet (ATJ-SPK) pathway, with full integration of carbon capture & sequestration (CCS). The facility aims for ~60 million gallons per year (or equivalent in fuels) and will operate under net-zero carbon protocols by capturing process CO₂ and co-locating sequestration. Gevo is advancing necessary permitting and financing.
