PROJECT ROADRUNNER
With Infinium’s Project Roadrunner, the future is here.
THE PROJECT
Project Roadrunner is Infinium’s second commercial-scale eFuels project and will be the largest in the world when production begins. Located in West Texas, where low-cost renewable energy is available, Project Roadrunner will produce mostly Infinium eSAF – sustainable aviation fuel produced from just renewable power and waste CO2 – but also smaller volumes of eDiesel for the trucking and maritime industries and eNaphtha that will be turned into low carbon plastics.
THE HISTORY
The assets at our Roadrunner project previously operated as a commercial gas-to-liquids (GTL) facility for several years. This plant uses core Infinium technology already, and our team will be upgrading the plant to run on waste CO2 and green hydrogen using additional renewable power assets that are being built specifically for this project.
Breakthrough Energy Catalyst is providing $75 million in project level equity to Project Roadrunner. The Roadrunner investment is Breakthrough Energy Catalyst's first announced equity investment. Catalyst, a program within the larger Breakthrough Energy network, is a new and unique model for public-private sector partnership to help build the foundation of the Net Zero economy. Catalyst brings together corporate and philanthropic organizations to accelerate the deployment of essential technologies by funding emerging cleantech innovation through commercial-scale projects.
