PRESS RELEASE
Alby PtX has awarded Técnicas Reunidas the front-end engineering design (FEED) contract for its planned industrial-scale synthetic sustainable aviation fuel (e-SAF) plant in Alby, Sweden. Designed to produce around 66,000 tons of e-SAF annually from fossil-free electricity, water and captured carbon dioxide, the facility will support aviation’s decarbonization and the development of new green industry in Sweden. The appointment marks a key milestone towards a final investment decision.
Alby PtX is advancing the development of its industrial-scale Power-to-Liquid facility in the municipality of Ånge with the appointment of Técnicas Reunidas as its FEED contractor. Under the newly signed contract, Técnicas Reunidas will be responsible for the engineering integration of the entire production process, establishing the technical foundation for the project’s subsequent development and construction.
The plant will use renewable electricity to produce hydrogen from water through electrolysis. This hydrogen will be combined with captured carbon dioxide to produce synthetic crude oil, which will then be refined into e-SAF. The production process integrates reverse water-gas shift, Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, hydrocarbon upgrading and associated treatment units. A naphtha recycling system will maximize carbon utilization and overall process efficiency, helping to increase e-SAF output. Pre-engineering packages from the project’s technology licensors provide the basis for integrating these processes during the FEED phase.
Entering FEED represents a significant investment in the project’s development by its owners, Norsk e-Fuel and Prime Capital. This phase will refine the plant design, project scope, cost estimates and implementation schedule, to reduce uncertainty and provide the technical and commercial basis to move the project to final investment decision and realization.
“Appointing Técnicas Reunidas is a key milestone in advancing our Alby project towards a final investment decision. The FEED phase will provide the engineering foundation for a plant designed to produce sustainable aviation fuel that will support aviation’s decarbonization while position Sweden as leading country for the e-Fuel industry. This appointment reflects our confidence in Técnicas Reunidas as a long-term partner with the expertise to support us from development through to project delivery,” said Lars Bjørn Larsen, Member of the Board Alby PtX and CEO, Norsk e-Fuel.
The FEED contract is the first step towards preparing a potential engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract. Subject to a subsequent EPC award and a positive final investment decision by Alby PtX, Técnicas Reunidas would carry out the engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning and start-up of the plant.
“This contract award strengthens Técnicas Reunidas’ position as a leading engineering and construction company in the energy transition sector and further consolidates its growing portfolio of sustainable fuels, hydrogen and Power-to-X projects across Europe,” said Gonzalo Pardo Mocoroa, Deputy CEO & Commercial Director, Técnicas Reunidas’ Track & Services BU.
The appointment marks Técnicas Reunidas’ first contract in Sweden. For Alby PtX, it brings engineering and project delivery expertise to the next development phase. The partnership complements the Power-to-Liquid development experience and investment expertise of its owners, Norsk e-Fuel and Prime Capital, who are supported by RES.
