Insights

Energy Infrastructure Analyst

XCF Global's MOU with FlyORO targets critical SAF infrastructure bottlenecks, potentially unlocking significant value in the expanding $25B market.

This strategic partnership between XCF Global and FlyORO addresses one of the most significant barriers to Sustainable Aviation Fuel adoption: blending and supply chain inefficiencies. The aviation industry faces a critical infrastructure gap where most SAF blending happens at production facilities, creating inflexibility that limits widespread adoption.

FlyORO's AlphaLite™ modular blending technology represents a potential game-changer by enabling blending at various points in the supply chain, including directly at airports. This flexibility could substantially reduce logistics costs while accelerating deployment timelines. The technology's low-CAPEX approach aligns perfectly with XCF's recently announced capital-efficient international expansion strategy.

The timing is particularly strategic given projections that the global SAF market will exceed $25 billion by 2030, with demand surpassing 5.5 billion gallons. This partnership positions XCF to capture significant market share by offering end-to-end solutions across the entire SAF value chain.

Most importantly, this collaboration could fundamentally alter the economics of SAF distribution. By enabling blending closer to the point of use, the partners could eliminate costly transportation of pre-blended fuels and create more adaptable supply networks that can respond to regional market dynamics. While still subject to due diligence and final agreements, this MOU represents a technologically sophisticated approach to solving structural inefficiencies in the emerging SAF ecosystem.

HOUSTON, TEXAS / ACCESS Newswire / October 1, 2025 / XCF Global, Inc. ("XCF") (Nasdaq:SAFX), a key player in decarbonizing the aviation industry through Sustainable Aviation Fuel ("SAF"), and FlyORO Technologies Pte. Ltd. ("FlyORO"), a global leader in digital modular blending solutions for SAF, today announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU").

Under the MOU, XCF and FlyORO will explore the creation of a global partnership to help solve one of aviation's biggest bottlenecks: SAF supply chain and blending inefficiencies. As most blending occurs upstream at production facilities, there are limitations to flexibility and scalability. Midstream and downstream infrastructure such as terminals or airports often lack the equipment and certification processes needed for blending. Together, XCF and FlyORO intend to co-develop an end-to-end solution to enable the ready uplift of SAF. By combining XCF's expertise in SAF production infrastructure with FlyORO's patented modular blending technology - AlphaLite™ - designed for flexible deployment either on-airport or pre-airport, the collaboration aims to support cost-effective, compliant, and scalable SAF integration into the global aviation fuel system.

The urgency to deploy scalable SAF infrastructure has never been greater. By 2030, the global SAF market is projected to exceed $25 billion, with worldwide demand expected to surpass 5.5 billion gallons. As this demand accelerates, next-generation blending solutions such as FlyORO's AlphaLite™ system, an innovative, flexible, and low-CAPEX technology, will be critical to bridging production with airports and fleets worldwide.

This potential partnership aligns directly with XCF's international expansion strategy announced in June 2025, under which the company is pursuing a capital-efficient, modular approach to global SAF deployment through regionally tailored partnerships. The potential collaboration with FlyORO would be expected to strengthen XCF's ability to deliver end-to-end SAF solutions, from production through blending and distribution, across the world.

Mihir Dange, CEO of XCF Global commented:

"This partnership has the potential to rewire how the aviation industry thinks about SAF deployment. Blending isn't just a technical step, it's a critical piece of the infrastructure puzzle that determines how fast SAF can scale. By combining FlyORO's cutting-edge blending technology with XCF's global strategy, we're creating a pathway to accelerate adoption, reduce costs, and unlock new growth opportunities for investors and stakeholders alike."

Damian Mc Loughlin, Chief Commercial Officer of FlyORO commented:

"FlyORO was founded with the mission to eliminate barriers to SAF adoption. Our modular AlphaLite™ system makes blending more flexible, scalable, and affordable. Working with XCF, we can expand this vision globally, bringing smarter logistics and faster SAF deployment to airports and airlines around the world."

The non-binding MOU reflects a shared vision to accelerate SAF adoption and position both companies as leaders in clean aviation infrastructure. Execution is subject to due diligence, technical validation, and final agreements.
