Planning, project management and Environmental Impact Assessment for a new alcohol to jet fuel production facility

Our role

  • The team is working closely with officers at Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council and Natural Resources Wales.
  • The Pre-Application Consultation (PAC) follows a period of early consultation on the plans which was held in May and June 2023.
  • We are leading on Planning, Project Management and Environmental Impact Assessment for LanzaTech.

Results

  • The facility, which would be located at Crown Wharf in Port Talbot, would produce about 100 million litres of sustainable aviation fuel per year, around 10% of the sustainable aviation fuel that the UK plans to use by 2030. 
  • Sustainable aviation fuel reduces the production of greenhouse gases by more than 70%. This is expected to create over 150 full-time jobs, including 85 jobs on-site alongside further employment in the supply chain.
  • The c. £350 million project is being delivered in conjunction with the South Wales Industrial Cluster. 
  • The project will deliver a strategic investment in a new alcohol to jet fuel production facility in Port Talbot. 
  • A planning application was submitted in November 2023 and a resolution to grant approval was secured at committee in March 2024.
