Shell paused construction on Europe's largest biofuel plant in Rotterdam, citing technical difficulties. The project, expected to convert waste into green jet fuel and biodiesel, aimed to produce 820,000 tonnes of biofuels annually, with half intended for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). This setback impacts the aviation industry's efforts to reduce carbon emissions.
The pause in construction reflects Shell's commitment to addressing challenges, optimizing project sequencing, and maintaining capital discipline. Low-carbon fuels are integral to Shell's goal of offering affordable and sustainable products, aligning with global climate targets. This decision underscores the complexities of decarbonizing the aviation sector and the importance of biofuels in achieving sustainability goals.
