- Arcadia eFuels' Vordingborg plant will produce 120 TPD of green hydrogen.
- The project aims for a commercial operation date by late 2026.
- Arcadia eFuels has started a FEED study to support a Final Investment Decision by mid-2024.
- The green hydrogen will be combined with biogenic CO2 to produce carbon-neutral sustainable aviation fuel.
Project Overview
Arcadia eFuels has chosen Plug Power Inc. to supply a 280 MW proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer system for its Vordingborg plant in Denmark. This facility will produce sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) using green hydrogen generated from Denmark’s wind power.
Production Details
The Vordingborg site will utilize Plug’s electrolyzer technology to produce approximately 120 tons per day (TPD) of green hydrogen. This hydrogen will be combined with biogenic CO2 to create syngas, which will then be processed into carbon-neutral SAF. The fuel will comply with RFNBO standards in preparation for upcoming European aviation fuel mandates.
Regulatory Context
The demand for sustainable aviation fuel is driven by the European Commission’s requirement to supply 70 percent of fuel consumption at EU airports by 2050, with initial mandates starting in 2025.
Project Timeline
Arcadia eFuels has initiated a Front-End Engineering and Design (FEED) study to support a Final Investment Decision (FID) by mid-2024. The project is expected to move to the execution phase shortly thereafter, with a target for commercial operation by the end of 2026.
