Raven produces hydrogen, as well as synthetic fuels such as sustainable aviation fuels (SAF), using waste including green waste, solid waste, organic waste, and methane as a feedstock.
By partnering with Chart, Raven will look to have CO2 by-product, produced in its non-combustion thermically, chemical reductive process, liquefied and sold as a commodity for food and beverage production, fertiliser production, and other consumer applications.
“By partnering with Chart Industries, Raven SR will be able to optimise our facilities’ production of clean fuels, strengthening both project deployment and regional fuel supply,” said Matt Murdock, CEO of Raven SR. “As we expand globally, it is essential for Raven SR to collaborate with a world leader in hydrogen and carbon dioxide storage and transportation in order to increase energy efficiency throughout the supply chain.”
Earlier this month (December 2022), Wyoming, US-based Raven announced it had been awarded €1.7m ($1.75m) by the European Commission for the development of a waste-to-hydrogen production facility in Spain.

Commenting on the new agreement, Jill Evanko, CEO and President of Chart, said, “We are excited to partner with Raven SR, a world leader in sustainable solutions, including waste to energy and transportation applications.”
“This collaboration brings two companies together that combined can offer a robust solution set of options for renewables customers as well as further progressing our customers’ CO2 reduction goals.”
In September (2022), Raven signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Emerging Fuels Technology (EFT) to integrate technologies into an advanced system for producing SAF and renewable diesel.
