Gevo Inc (NASDAQ: GEVO) has signed a "take-or-pay" agreement with Delta Air Lines, Inc. (NYSE: DAL) to supply 75 million gallons of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) per year for seven years.
Gevo estimates the agreement should generate ~$2.8 billion of revenue, inclusive of the value from environmental benefits, for the company over the seven-year term.
This agreement replaces the existing agreement signed with Delta in 2019 to purchase 10 million gallons per year.
"We expect production from our first Net-Zero plant to begin in 2025. To meet the demand that we now have under contract, we need to develop and build more than one Net-Zero plant," commented Patrick R. Gruber, Ph.D., Gevo's CEO.
