Who We Are

We are problem solvers with a mission to employ the region's underutilized natural resources and human capital for sustainable fuel production.

As the world works to decarbonize the economy to combat climate change, finding a renewable energy source that matches the energy density of coal is a challenge.

Now:
Renewable Food Packaging​

  • Lignocellulosic crops like miscanthus offer scalable, non-food bio packaging feedstocks​

  • Only 0.02% of farmland is used for lignocellulosic biomass today​

  • Renewable food packaging is necessary to minimize food industry plastic waste

Direct Products

  • Miscanthus can be grown for animal bedding as an alternative to hay and other more carbon intense grasses, and can also be grown without interfering with other crops

Carbon Sequestration and Land Revitalization

  • Miscanthus supports the decarbonization of hard-to-abate sectors such as aviation, heavy-duty transport, and renewable natural gas​

  • Marginal and underutilized lands which cannot grow other crops can sustain miscanthus, which also revitalizes the area to be suitable for future farming
  • Former coal mines can be planted on and restored
  • Growing energy crops will allow Kentucky to return as a leader in the industry, creating new jobs in areas which were formerly reliant on coal mining

Our Goals

We plan to be a reliable long term source of lignocellulosic feedstocks.

Future:
Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)

  • The global aviation industry has a stated goal: net zero emissions by 2050​

  • To achieve this, 3 billion gallons of SAF must be in use by 2030, and 35 billion gallons by 2050​

  • In 2024, .5 BILLION gallons of SAF were consumed globally, compared to 107 BILLION gallons of petroleum-based fuel

Direct Products

  • Fuel pucks can be made from miscanthus as a coal energy alternative
