- Project SkyKraft was initiated in 2022 to produce Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) from renewable electricity and biogenic CO2.
- The project positions Northern Sweden as a leader in the energy transition.
- Skellefteå offers nearly 100% renewable energy from hydro and wind power for eSAF production.
- SkyKraft requires about 1% of Sweden's biogenic CO2 emissions.
Project Overview
Initiated in 2022, Project SkyKraft is a collaboration between SkyNRG and Skellefteå Kraft to explore the production of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) using renewable electricity and biogenic CO2, known as eSAF. This initiative aims to position Northern Sweden as a leader in the energy transition.
Renewable Energy Utilization
Skellefteå offers nearly 100% renewable energy sourced from hydro and wind power, providing a continuous and cost-efficient supply for eSAF production. This strategic location by Skellefteå harbor leverages abundant renewable energy sources to support the decarbonization of the aviation industry.
Biogenic CO2 Potential
Sweden holds the largest potential for biogenic CO2 in Europe, with the Skellefteå region having the industrial scale to provide it. Project SkyKraft requires approximately 1% of the biogenic CO2 currently emitted in Sweden, contributing to the EU's decarbonization goals and enhancing Skellefteå's position as a hub for next-generation green industry.
