Delta (DAL) Inks Deal With Gevo for 75M Gallons of SAF Per Year
Read MoreHide Full Article
Delta Air Lines (DAL - Free Report) has signed a “take-or-pay” agreement with Gevo, Inc. (GEVO - Free Report) for 75 million gallons of sustainable aviation fuel (“SAF”) per year for a seven-year term.
The agreement replaces Delta’s existing deal with Gevo, signed in 2019, to purchase 10 million gallons of SAF per year. It advances DAL’s goal of net-zero aviation. The company has a target to replace 10% of its conventional jet fuel consumption with SAF by the end of 2030. Delta carries a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell).
Gevo, carrying a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), expects the agreement to generate approximately $2.8 billion in revenues over the seven-year period. The company expects to begin production from its first Net-Zero plant in 2025. In response to the higher demand, GEVO intends to build more than one Net-Zero plant.
Gevo has been committed to sustainability initiatives. The company has developed two alcohol-to-jet pathways that can utilize low-carbon feedstocks, which in turn can be converted to SAF.
Regarding the agreement, Delta said that it is “working to develop the market and a broader understanding of the effectiveness of SAF, which can reduce lifecycle emissions up to 80 percent when used in pure form compared to fossil jet fuels.”
