Haffner Energy CEO says eSAF costs 5-6 times fossil jet fuel, backs bioSAF route
  • Haffner Energy management flagged cost as the main barrier to eSAF, estimating it at 5x–6x the price of fossil jet fuel.
  • Management positioned bioSAF from residual biomass as its strategic focus, citing airline fuel at about 30% of operating costs.
  • Recycled oils and fats for HEFA were described as supply-constrained, priced at 1,000–1,200 €/t, equivalent to 100–120 €/MWh.
  • Residual biomass was cited at 20–30 €/MWh, with conventional SAF routes relying on syngas conversion via Fischer-Tropsch or Methanol-to-Jet.
  • Management said its SYNOCA thermolysis route targets about 3x lower CAPEX than conventional pathways, with plans to produce renewable diesel using similar equipment.
