WHAT IS SYNKERO
Synkero develops a synthetic kerosene facility in the Port of Amsterdam.
An intensive preparation period with key stakeholders in the supply chain resulted in the initiation of Synkero. A start-up company that will focus on the development of a commercial synthetic kerosene facility in Amsterdam.
Why Synkero?
To keep our world liveable, we need to drastically reduce our carbon footprint
The aviation industry depends on fuels with high energy density. Something that, besides all promising developments and innovations, batteries and hydrogen can’t supply in the foreseeable future
Therefore production of synthetic kerosene, is the best alternative to reduce airline emissions
