We are
Velocys. A leading technology company playing a crucial part in the global Energy Transition.
Our patented catalyst and micro-channel reactor platform provide a scalable, flexible solution enabling the production of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) from a broad range of renewable carbon and hydrogen sources, including municipal solid waste, woody biomass, biogas, and green hydrogen.
Our performance at commercial scale has been demonstrated. Our competitive advantage comes not only from our technology, but also from two decades of operational and engineering experience. Together, with a deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities of developing SAF production capacity, the value we provide to our clients is second to none.
We are a UK-based company with a strong presence in the US across two sites; an engineering and commercial centre in Houston, Texas and a technology and manufacturing facility in Columbus, Ohio. Our 45-strong team of subject matter experts in Engineering, Manufacturing and Finance (to name a few), have one common goal: directing the future of aviation in a more sustainable trajectory.
