Technip Energies, Airbus, Safran and Tereos join forces to develop a Sustainable Aviation Fuel production project in France
The partners will fund engineering studies and permitting as the project targets about 160,000 tons of SAF a year.
- On Tuesday, Technip Energies, Airbus, Safran, and Tereos announced Rebound, a joint venture to develop large-scale Sustainable Aviation Fuel production at the Port of Dunkirk in France.
- The project will utilize the Alcohol-to-Jet technological pathway to produce approximately 160,000 tons of SAF annually, making it one of Europe's largest facilities and strengthening energy sovereignty.
- Technip Energies acts as lead developer and engineering service provider; Airbus and Safran serve as industrial partners and offtake facilitators, while Tereos supplies advanced ethanol from agricultural production.
- SAF currently accounts for only 0.8% of total fuel consumption, yet European Union mandates require blending to reach 6% by 2030 and 70% by 2050, creating urgent supply pressure.
- Partners committed to fund the development phase, including engineering studies required before a Final Investment Decision; the joint venture is expected to finalize in the second half of 2026.
