Twelve's AirPlant One facility in Moses Lake, Washington has begun commercial operations producing sustainable aviation fuel from captured carbon dioxide, water, and renewable electricity. The plant received early backing from Microsoft and Alaska Air Group, with both companies committing to purchase output through offtake agreements. The facility also produces E-Naphtha, a chemical substitute for plastics and synthetic fibers made from the same inputs. The power-to-liquid process allows Twelve to offer airlines and corporate buyers long-term fixed-price fuel contracts. Alaska Airlines plans to use the SAF for domestic flights, while Microsoft will use a book-and-claim model to reduce its business travel emissions. SAF currently makes up only 0.6% of global jet fuel use, and the plant represents a test case for scaling e-fuel production beyond agricultural feedstocks.
