Twelve has opened AirPlant One in Moses Lake, Washington, the first commercial-scale facility in the United States to produce E-Jet fuel from carbon dioxide and renewable electricity. The facility marks a milestone in sustainable aviation fuel production, with Alaska Airlines committing to a large-scale purchase and Microsoft supporting the expansion through a strategic investment. The plant uses carbon electrolysis to convert CO2 into jet fuel, aiming to decarbonize aviation. Company officials say AirPlant One will serve as a model for future commercial-scale production of sustainable aviation fuel, demonstrating how industrial electrification can work at scale.
