Had a great discussion with @GovPritzker at the Illinois Future of Fuels Conference, where I delivered a keynote on how Illinois can lead the next era of low carbon fuels. At @LanzaJet, we're scaling SAF by deploying our ethanol-to-jet technology in Illinois and around the world.

SAF goes beyond sustainability — it’s about energy security, economic growth, and ensuring America is poised to lead the future of flight. The tech is ready. The aviation sector is on board. With the right government support, we can scale SAF faster and unlock new opportunities.
SAF doesn’t just stand for Sustainable Aviation Fuel — it’s also Secure American Fuel. At LanzaJet, we’re driving innovation that cuts aviation emissions while strengthening US energy independence, supporting rural communities, and creating good-paying jobs right here at home.

The US has the tech, feedstock, and workforce to lead the world in SAF—but without the right policies, we risk ceding ground to global competitors. Scaling SAF isn’t just about aviation—it’s about American jobs, energy security, and economic strength.

The Farm to Fly Act is a gamechanger for US energy. It’s about using our resources, supporting our farmers, creating jobs, taking control of our energy future. Sustainable Aviation Fuel is key to achieving energy dominance. Statement from @TheSAFCoalition:
