The parties discussed the matters of further development of bilateral cooperation aimed at creating production of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) in our country.
During the conversation, A. Khasenov noted that the partnership with LanzaJet opens up prospects for the development of sustainable energy solutions. Implementation of low-carbon alternative fuel production technologies is important for Kazakhstan.
KMG’s head expressed appreciation to Mr. Samartzis for LanzaJet's interest in the sustainable aviation fuel plant construction project in Kazakhstan. The parties confirmed their readiness to accelerate the development of the project feasibility study (FS).
— Our collaboration will make a substantial contribution to achieving low-carbon development goals and introduce the latest technologies, and will help KMG reduce emissions by 15% by 2031 against the 2019 level. In general, the project will have a serious impact on the development of the biofuel market and transit opportunities in Kazakhstan, noted A. Khassenov.
