Powered by advanced conversion technologies and circular feedstocks like sorghum, camelina, and organic waste, the project will deliver ultra-low carbon fuels that support aviation decarbonization, energy security, and sustainable economic growth.

Designed for export-readiness and regional resilience, the facility positions Uzbekistan as a new leader in the global green economy—where innovation, climate action, and local value creation intersect.

The landmark Project Development Agreement (PDA) to advance Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) production in Uzbekistan "underscores our commitment to pioneering clean energy solutions in key emerging markets," said the company in a press release.

The project will be powered by a 4.45 GW renewable energy system, including a 1,600 MWh energy storage system and 2,400 MW of electrolyzers for green hydrogen production. 

This pivotal agreement was formalized with His Excellency Laziz Shavkatovich Kudratov, Minister of Investment, Industry, and Trade of the Republic of Uzbekistan, alongside Alfred Benedict, Chairman of Allied Green Ammonia.

"Through this collaboration, we aim to accelerate sustainable energy innovation, support Uzbekistan’s ambitious green growth agenda, and deliver a world-class SAF project that serves the evolving needs of the global aviation industry. We look forward to working closely with all stakeholders to create a lasting climate and economic impact across Central Asia," the company said.

The official signing of the agreement took place in Perth, Western Australia, on April 2, 2026.
