DCC/Shell Aviation Denmark intend to purchase the full output of eJet Fuel from Arcadia eFuels first production facility
February 21, 2022
Arcadia eFuels ApS is pleased to announce that the leading aviation fuel provider in Denmark, DCC/Shell Aviation Denmark A/S, has signed a letter of intent to purchase the entire output of eJet Fuel from Arcadia’s first eFuels plant. There is a huge need for sustainable aviation fuel for the aviation industry, and Arcadia eFuels intends to help meet that need. This cooperation supports Denmark’s goal for net zero carbon domestic flying by 2030 and goes above and beyond by supporting the need with domestic production.
Arcadia eFuels uses reneweable electricity, water, and carbon dioxide to produce net zero carbon fuels that can be used in existing engines and existing infrastructure. The first eFuels plant will produce approximately 55,000MT of eJet Fuel (eKerosene) and 25,000MT of eNaphtha, around 100 million liters per year.
The eJet fuel complies with the internationally accepted standard ASTM D7566, FT-SPK (Synthesized Paraffinic Kerosene) and can be blended up to 50% with conventional jet fuel for use as aviation fuel. This fuel allows airlines to cut their carbon emissions proportionally to meet national and international targets.

These net-zero carbon fuels will allow the transportation sector, namely aviation and shipping, to use efuels directly, without changes to existing engines and infrastructure. Arcadia eFuels aims to produce eFuels around the world to help meet the aviation industry’s decarbonization goals.
