This synthetic kerosene is made from renewable electricity, water and biogenic CO2, all sourced in France, with an ecological balance tending towards carbon neutrality over the entire emissions cycle. The synthetic kerosene aims to offer a competitive alternative in complement to biokerosene. It will be progressively blended into fossil kerosene to meet the decarbonation target of the aviation industry. Their first production unit will be located in Normandy.
