Company awarded £27m to make jet fuel from rubbish

Transport Secretary Mark Harper said the scheme would "create thousands of green jobs across the country and slash carbon emissions"Velocys PLC is building a plant in Immingham which it is hoped will produce 300,000 tonnes of sustainable aviation fuel a year.

Another project, which would see the early development of a SAF plant using carbon capture and hydrogen made from renewable electricity, had received £2.5m from the same tranche of funding, a company statement added. "The grant will allow us to begin feed for our waste-to-SAF plant in Immingham, which already has planning permission," he added.The Department for Transport said the Immingham project would see the conversion of black bin bag waste into liquid fuel on a commercial scale, with operations expected to begin in 2028

Sounds like a leftover pie in the sky project
