Developing the Renewable Fuels That Will Power a Net-Zero Future

Phelan eFuels develops large-scale renewable fuel projects that help decarbonise hard-to-abate industries by producing synthetic fuels derived from renewable energy, green hydrogen, and captured biogenic carbon dioxide.

Our first commercial focus is electro-Sustainable Aviation Fuel (eSAF), with future development of additional eFuel products that support the global transition to cleaner transport and industry.

Why eFuels for a Greener Future?

Seamless Transition

Phelan’s eFuels are designed for use within existing engines, fuel infrastructure and distribution networks. Industries can transition to renewable fuels without replacing the systems and infrastructure they rely on today.

Cost Leadership

By developing projects in regions with abundant, low-cost renewable energy, Phelan eFuels aims to produce renewable fuels at the scale and cost needed for widespread commercial adoption.

Global Scalability

Phelan eFuels develops world-scale projects in regions selected for their renewable energy potential, strategic location and access to international markets. This approach creates a repeatable model for producing and supplying renewable fuels worldwide.

Lower Emissions

Produced using renewable energy, green hydrogen and captured biogenic carbon dioxide, Phelan’s eFuels can reduce lifecycle emissions by 95%, compared to conventional fossil fuels.

Energy Security

Producing eFuels from locally available renewable resources reduces dependence on volatile fossil fuel markets and vulnerable global supply chains. It gives countries greater control over how and where their fuels are produced.

Circular Carbon

Phelan’s eFuels run on recycled carbon. We capture biogenic CO₂ and use it as feedstock — no new fossil carbon extracted from the ground.

eSAF: Powering the Future of Aviation

eSAF is a synthetic aviation fuel produced using renewable electricity, green hydrogen and captured biogenic carbon dioxide. As a drop-in fuel, it can be blended with conventional jet fuel and used within today’s aircraft and airport infrastructure without modification. This makes eSAF one of the most practical pathways for reducing emissions across the global aviation sector.

Why eSAF?

Drop-in Compatibility

No aircraft or airport infrastructure modifications required.

eSAF integrates seamlessly with existing aircraft, engines, fuel systems and airport infrastructure, enabling immediate adoption without costly upgrades.

Up to 95% Lower Lifecycle CO₂ Emissions

Supports the decarbonisation of commercial aviation.

Produced using renewable electricity, green hydrogen and captured carbon, eSAF has the potential to reduce lifecycle CO₂ emissions by up to 95% compared to conventional jet fuel.

Renewable Carbon Feedstocks

Produced using captured carbon from renewable biomass.

Phelan eFuels utilises captured carbon derived from invasive tree species, transforming an environmental challenge into a valuable renewable feedstock while supporting ecosystem restoration.

Certified for Global Aviation

Designed to meet international aviation fuel standards and regulatory mandates.

eSAF is certified for use in commercial aviation and supports airlines in meeting growing Sustainable Aviation Fuel blending mandates and decarbonisation targets across global markets.

SUSTAINABLE AVIATION FUEL IS RAPIDLY MOVING FROM ASPIRATION TO OBLIGATION

Blending Mandates

Global Sustainable Aviation Fuel mandates have been introduced to reduce aviation’s carbon emissions and accelerate the transition towards a net-zero future.

The Saldanha Project is Phelan Green Group’s flagship electro-Sustainable Aviation Fuel (eSAF) development and the first project in our global eFuels programme. Located in Saldanha Bay on South Africa’s west coast, the development will be delivered through a three-phase execution approach that combines renewable energy generation, green hydrogen production and advanced fuel synthesis to produce commercial-scale eSAF for international markets.

The project also includes a dedicated Net Zero Academy and Sports & Athletics Park, creating opportunities for skills development, education and long-term community investment alongside world-class clean energy infrastructure.

Why Saldanha Bay, South Africa?

Saldanha Bay brings together everything needed for world-scale eSAF production. Positioned as South Africa’s emerging Green Maritime and Hydrogen Hub, it offers consistent solar and wind resources, a deep-water port, an established industrial development zone, available development land and direct shipping routes to Europe. South Africa also provides an abundant supply of invasive tree species that can be used as a renewable feedstock, helping restore local ecosystems while supplying sustainable carbon for eSAF production.
