OUR VISION
Sustainable & affordable e-fuels at scale for sustainable aviation
WHY?
To achieve carbon-neutrality in 2050, sustainable solutions need to be developed in all sectors. Aviation is under great pressure, due the current fossil technologies, long lifetimes of planes, and large share of global CO2 emissions, currently reaching about 2-3% globally and 4% within the EU.
Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) are the best solution to push aviation towards emission reductions. Bio-based SAF is a great first step, but no silver bullet, due to feedstock limitations, limited cost degression potential and a broad variety in emission reduction level. E-fuels have the best potential to achieve sustainable and affordable SAF at scale, but the technology is still immature suffering from high cost and low efficiency.
WHAT?
The rapid growth of SAF demand is threatened by its limited availability and high cost. A new type of organization is required that develops a scalable and integrated e-fuels SAF production process directly connected to lowest-cost renewable electricity (solar & wind). With this approach, Spark can close current and future demand-supply gaps and achieve most economic production of sustainable e-fuels at scale.
By developing load-flexible and scalable e-fuels production steps that can rapidly deployed to lowest-cost renewables locations, Spark addresses the most relevant bottlenecks for the role out of e-fuels: high cost, low volumes and limited sustainability. With this novel approach Spark thrives to deliver sustainable e-fuels for a sustainable aviation industry.
HOW WE ARE DIFFERENT
Solving key bottlenecks by directly accessing fluctuating renewables

CO2 source
Renewable electricity
CO2 separation
Electrolysis
E-fuels synthesis
E-SAF refining
By developing its proprietary e-fuels synthesis and SAF refining technology, Spark enables an integrated and load-flexible e-fuels production process that can be connected with fluctuating renewables directly. With its end-to-end process design Spark will produce lowest-cost, most sustainable SAF at scale and therewith overcome current challenges to reach net-zero in aviation.

WHO WE ARE

We are passionate about sustainability and want to make a difference

Dr. Julia Bauer
CSO - Chief Science Officer
Sustainable chemical technologies are the central theme throughout Julia’s professional career. Being a chemist by training, she developed profound knowledge of catalysis and industrial chemistry during her PhD at BasCat – UniCat BASF JointLab and as a process engineer at Evonik. She made it her mission to advance innovative chemical processes with impact.

Dr. Mathias Bösl
CEO - Chief Executive Officer
Mathias is a green technology and sustainable business enthusiast. Holding a PhD in physics and an MBA, he developed & commercialized green technologies in an industrial and academic environment. With his business background at the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) he strives to build a great company to bring e-fuels to commercial scale.

Dr. Arno Zimmermann
CTO - Chief Technology Officer
Creating cleantech products is Arno’s passion. He has been working on sustainable chemistry, and energy technology products for global corporates, start-ups and academia. In his PhD he analyzed techno-economics of using CO2 as a resource and conducted an e-fuels study at MIT. Arno co-founded two sustainability start-ups and was named Forbes 30 Under 30.
