SACRAMENTO, Calif., Sept. 10, 2024 (PRNewswire) - Infinium, the world’s first producer of commercially available ultra-low carbon eFuels, and Brookfield Asset Management (NYSE: BAM, TSX: BAM) ("Brookfield"), today announced a strategic funding partnership to expand Infinium’s eFuels platform. Infinium eFuels, including eSAF, a next-gen sustainable aviation fuel, can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by about 90% compared to current fuels.

Under the deal, Brookfield will invest over $200 million in Infinium and its Project Roadrunner, with an additional $850 million for future eFuels projects. This marks Brookfield's first direct investment in sustainable aviation fuel.
"Brookfield is a tremendous partner," said Infinium CEO Robert Schuetzle, emphasizing the capital’s role in scaling eSAF production to meet industry demand. Project Roadrunner will also produce eNaphtha and eDiesel, useful for sectors like trucking and maritime.
In a recent deal, American Airlines committed to purchasing Infinium eSAF starting in 2026, reinforcing Project Roadrunner’s impact in decarbonizing aviation.
Infinium is an electrofuels provider on a mission to decarbonize the world. Electrofuels, also known as eFuels, are a new class of synthetic fuels created using renewable power and waste carbon dioxide, not petroleum or resources that compete with food. Infinium eFuels such as eSAF jet fuel and eDiesel can be dropped into existing planes, trucks and ships, significantly reducing harmful carbon dioxide emissions compared to fossil-based fuels. In addition to helping the transport industry meet carbon reduction goals, Infinium eNaphtha is a lower carbon alternative for chemical processing, including plastics production.
