LanzaJet, Inc. is a global company and world leader in clean energy technology committed to decarbonizing the transportation sector. Our goal is to produce over 1 billion gallons of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and sustainable diesel fuel through our patented technology and process by 2030.   
LanzaJet was founded in 2020 and is backed by investors Shell, British Airways, Suncor Energy, LanzaTech, and Mitsui. These investors, as well as supporters All Nippon Airways, Bill Gates’s Breakthrough Energy Catalyst Foundation, and Microsoft’s Innovation Fund, have set the stage for our accelerated growth.

That refinery will produce 2/3 of the sustainable aviation fuel used in the United States. Additional commercial-scale low-carbon refineries are also being developed across the world in places like Japan, Australia, India, and Europe.

Aviation connects the world. And we’re working to ensure that connection is sustainable.
