Alby PtX, co-owned by Norsk e-Fuel and Prime Capital, has given a front-end engineering design (FEED) contract to Técnicas Reunidas for its industrial-scale synthetic sustainable aviation fuel (e-SAF) plant in Alby, Sweden.
Once operational, the plant will produce around 66,000 tons (59,900 tonnes) of e-SAF, supporting the country’s aviation decarbonisation efforts. As part of the FEED contract, Técnicas Reunidas is responsible for the engineering integration of the production process, which will establish the technical foundation for the project’s development and construction. This phase will also help to refine the plant design, project scope, cost estimates and implementation schedule.
Lars Bjørn Larsen, Member of the Board Alby PtX and CEO, Norsk e-Fuel, said: “Appointing Técnicas Reunidas is a key milestone in advancing our Alby project towards a final investment decision. The FEED phase will provide the engineering foundation for a plant designed to produce sustainable aviation fuel that will support aviation’s decarbonisation while positioning Sweden as leading country for the e-fuels industry. This appointment reflects our confidence in Técnicas Reunidas as a long-term partner with the expertise to support us from development through to project delivery.”
Gonzalo Pardo Mocoroa, Deputy CEO & Commercial Director, Técnicas Reunidas’ Track & Services BU, said: “This contract award strengthens Técnicas Reunidas’ position as a leading engineering and construction company in the energy transition sector and further consolidates its growing portfolio of sustainable fuels, hydrogen and Power-to-X projects across Europe.”
