Brookfield to Invest Up to $1.1 Billion in Infinium to Scale Ultra-Low Carbon eFuels:

New investments secured for Infinium and company’s Project Roadrunner production plant to accelerate availability of sustainable aviation fuel

SACRAMENTO, Calif., Sept. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Infinium, the world’s first producer of commercially available ultra-low carbon eFuels, and Brookfield Asset Management (NYSE: BAM, TSX: BAM) (“Brookfield”) today announced a strategic funding partnership to accelerate the growth of Infinium’s eFuels platform. Infinium eFuels—which includes eSAF, a next generation sustainable aviation fuel—can reduce lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 90% or more compared to today’s conventional fuels.

Under the terms of the deal, Brookfield has committed to invest more than $200 million in Infinium and Infinium’s Project Roadrunner that is under development in West Texas and up to an additional $850 million for deployment of other Infinium eFuels projects globally, all subject to pre-agreed metrics. The investment will be made by the first vintage of the Brookfield Global Transition Fund (“BGTF I”) and marks Brookfield’s first direct investment in sustainable aviation fuel. Brookfield will also serve as lead in Infinium’s Series C Preferred Stock offering.

“Brookfield is a tremendous partner, and we are thrilled to secure this additional capital as we scale eSAF production to meet the overwhelming demand from the aviation industry,” stated Infinium CEO Robert Schuetzle. “Our Project Pathfinder site was the first to bring commercial volumes of eFuels to market, and Project Roadrunner brings additional volumes of eFuels to scale global supplies. As our airline partners continue to push for more SAF and decarbonization options, Infinium remains committed to accelerating production to help meet those demands.”

Infinium eSAF is the newest generation of sustainable aviation fuel and is produced through a proprietary process that combines water, waste CO2 and renewable energy to produce ultra-low carbon fuels including eSAF, eDiesel and eNaphtha. eFuels are “drop-in” replacements for today’s fossil-based fuels and can be used without changes to engines or infrastructure in planes, ships, trucks and manufacturing processes.  

Infinium recently announced a strategic deal with American Airlines, in which American will purchase commercial volumes of Infinium eSAF starting in 2026 produced by Project Roadrunner. The agreement helps secure offtake for Project Roadrunner and fuel f
