Renewable fuels company Raven SR has secured its final air permit and construction approval for its planned California-based organic waste-to-hydrogen plant, which could produce 2,400 tonnes of hydrogen a year.

Believed by the company to be California’s first plant to turn organic waste-to-hydrogen site using a non-combustion process, the facility will process up to 99 wet tonnes of waste a day.

Raven will now complete final engineering revisions required by the permit conditions and prepare building permit packages. Raven anticipates the start of construction in 2026.

Permitting delays and inflation have raised project costs to about $75m, backed mostly by private equity. To help fund the project, Raven will use the 45V credit, but no federal grants.
