Firefly scoop win at 2024 Water Industry Awards

Firefly wins ‘Innovation of the year’ award at glittering award ceremony in Birmingham.

5 July 2024 – Yesterday evening the Firefly team were invited to attend the prestigious annual Water Industry Awards ceremony, held in Birmingham.

The evening was a huge success for the team, with Firefly taking home the ‘Innovation of the Year award’ for their work with Anglian Water.

Firefly’s innovative process that transforms biosolids into highly sustainable SAF was front-and-centre and garnered a huge amount of interest on the night.

This award follows a busy six months for Firefly in which plans for the UK’s first sewage-to-SAF production facility were announced. The facility, which will be located in Harwich, Essex will be realised with support from a range of key industrial partners, including Anglian Water.

The company has also announced a partnership with Chevron Lummus Global (CLG), a leading technology provider in the renewable transportation fuels industry.

CLG will provide bespoke refinery infrastructure, designed to optimize efficiency and flexibility while minimising emissions for Firefly’s commercial-scale plant.

The team are hugely grateful to the team at the Water Industry Awards for organising a very memorable evening.
