In 2023, MBIE co-funded two feasibility studies with Air New Zealand into waste-to-energy technology for so-called sustainable aviation fuel: Fulcrum BioEnergy, in partnership with Air BP, was to deliver one study. LanzaTech and LanzaJet, in partnership with Z Energy, was to deliver the other study.
Newsroom reported that the new government has cancelled involvement in these studies. Would you please advise the current status of these studies?
