en.Wedoany.com Reported - Houston-based XCF Global, Inc. recently announced a three-year commercial cooperation agreement with global biofuel technology licensor Axens North America, Inc. Through a licensing model, the two parties will combine XCF's proprietary modular refinery design blueprint with Axens' proprietary Vegan® process to accelerate the expansion of global sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production capacity via a standardized, repeatable construction model.

According to the agreement terms, Axens maintains the independence of its technology licensing, directly authorizing the Vegan® process to customers. Leveraging its engineering experience from operating commercial Vegan® units in the United States, XCF will independently provide potential project developers with modular design, project management, and construction/operation services. This cooperation mechanism does not establish a joint venture; instead, each party signs contracts separately with project developers, ensuring flexibility in market access and project delivery.

Regarding the technical pathway, XCF has validated the feasibility of its modular refinery blueprint at the New Rise Renewables Reno platform in Nevada and in Australian projects. This model produces sustainable aviation fuel via the HEFA (Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids) pathway, significantly shortening the construction timeline compared to traditional refinery facilities. Tina Craft, CEO of Axens North America, noted that this collaboration will enable more developers who can benefit from project management capabilities to quickly access its world-class Vegan® technology.

This strategic synergy not only strengthens XCF's scalability in the global market but also provides new growth opportunities for Axens' installed capacity outside North America. The two parties plan to prioritize joint market outreach to developers aspiring to deploy sustainable fuel facilities over the next three years. This model signifies a shift in aviation fuel production from customized engineering to standardized modular deployment, holding crucial supporting value for meeting the growing global demand for emission reduction.
