The path to aviation's net-zero 2050 commitment will not be built on incremental progress. It demands a technology platform that is versatile, scalable, and deployable today. This presentation makes the case for Alcohol-to-Jet (ATJ) as that platform, drawing on LanzaJet's experience as a first-mover in bringing ATJ-SAF from concept to commercial reality.

Through concrete examples from LanzaJet's journey, this session explores what it actually takes to build the next generation of the aviation fuels industry. The technical, commercial, and structural choices that determine whether a technology becomes a niche solution or a global standard.

ATJ-SAF is more than a fuel. By converting locally grown feedstocks into low-carbon jet fuel, ATJ simultaneously addresses energy security, rural economic development, and the credibility of aviation's decarbonization roadmap. It is a platform for systemic change. One already proven at scale and positioned to meet the ambition of 2050.
