Evry,
16 november 2022
- Global
Bioenergies has delivered a 200-litre
batch of sustainable aviation
fuel for tests commissioned as part of the GENOPTAIRE
project funded by the French government defence procurement and
technology agency (DGA).
The project, which forms part of the ministry’s
defence energy strategy, seeks to promote technological advances in
the design and use of military platforms making use of
electric-powered transport and alternative fuels.
At the moment, in order to streamline logistics
in the armed forces, aviation fuel is used in both aircraft and
land vehicles. One of the aims of the GENOPTAIRE project is to
identify and assess the impact of biosourced components mixed with
conventional aviation fuels on engine performance in land vehicles
used by the French Army.
Representatives of the DGA and Military Staff
involved in the project issued the following statement: “The batch
delivered by Global Bioenergies will be tested first by the project
participants (IFPEN, ONERA and SEO) in combination with fossil
kerosene for physico-chemical analysis. Subsequently, the Military
Staff’s operational energy department (EMA/SEO) plans to conduct
engine trials.”
Marc Delcourt, CEO of Global Bioenergies said:
“Having our products assessed by the French Army is a major step
forward in our trajectory. We imagine that converting local
feedstocks into both civil and military transportation fuels could
be of strategic interest for the country.”
