GPS Renewables begins Construction of India’s first Ethanol-to-Jet SAF Plant

GPS Renewables has begun construction of India’s first Ethanol-to-Jet Sustainable Aviation Fuel plant at NTPC’s Green Hydrogen Hub in Andhra Pradesh. The project aims to turn ethanol into clean jet fuel, marking a major step towards low-carbon aviation and supporting India’s green energy push.

 

GPS Renewables (GPSR) has been awarded the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contract by NTPC Ltd to build India’s first Ethanol-to-Jet (ETJ) SAF plant. The facility is being set up at NTPC Green Energy Ltd’s Green Hydrogen Hub in Pudimadaka, Andhra Pradesh.

 

The plant is designed to produce 1,800 tonnes per annum (TPA) of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). It will use ethanol derived from CO? and follow a multi-step process involving ethanol-to-ethylene conversion, olefins oligomerisation, and hydroprocessing to produce SAF and renewable diesel.
