Firefly plenary talk at Unreasonable Alchemy 26

Recently, James Hygate OBE Hygate, Co-Founder and CEO of Firefly, took the plenary stage at Unreasonable Alchemy to share Firefly’s vision for the future of decarbonised flight.

His message was clear:
We know how to make SAF from sewage. The challenge now is scaling it.

How do we produce enough, quickly enough, and at a cost airlines can afford?

At Firefly, we believe the answer lies in thinking beyond fuel production and building a new model of infrastructure that connects waste, energy, aviation and the circular economy.

Our first commercial-scale facility in Harwich, UK, will be the blueprint for that model, demonstrating how our technology can be deployed and then replicated across markets around the world.

A huge thank you to Unreasonable for the opportunity to share our vision, and to Barclays, Flourish Trust and F5 Collective for bringing the community together.
