Southern Energy Renewables Inc. and Axens have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to collaborate on the development of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and related fuel projects, with an initial focus on Southern’s planned biomass-to-fuel facility in Louisiana. Under the MOU, Southern will lead overall project development—including site work, permitting, feedstock and offtake engagement, and coordination with local stakeholders—while Axens serves as licensor of record for key technologies across the value chain, including CO2 capture and conditioning and SAF production. The parties expect to focus first on the Louisiana facility, then evaluate additional opportunities in other regions as appropriate.
