    Haltermann Carless and INERATEC sign LOI for planned Normandy renewable fuels project

    Haltermann Carless and INERATEC signed a letter of intent for a power-and-biomass-to-liquids project in Normandy. Haltermann intends to buy bio-e-SAF and bio-e-naphtha for a minimum 10-year period after start-up. Commissioning is planned for 2029; from 2031 the project targets approximately 60,000 tonnes of wood residues annually and at least 13,000 tonnes of Fischer-Tropsch products. These are planned capacity and purchasing intentions, not operating output or a final investment decision.

    UFOP reports disappointing oilseed harvest but rapeseed prices near 500 EUR/tonne

    UFOP’s annual meeting described Germany’s oilseed harvest as uneven and disappointing, with harvest-time rapeseed producer prices rising to 500 EUR/tonne and partly offsetting weaker yields. The association links dependable yields and prices to domestic biofuel feedstock availability and calls for broader biodiesel use. This is an association’s market assessment and advocacy, not a certified fuel-feedstock transaction or a newly enacted blending rule.

    UFOP reports Germany’s first-half HVO imports rising while biodiesel sales stay near prior-year levels

    Citing BAFA data, UFOP reports that imported HVO rose from 68,500 tonnes to 337,100 tonnes in the first half of 2026, while biodiesel sales were 1.062 million tonnes versus 1.085 million tonnes a year earlier. The association argues that the DIN EN 590 maximum 7% blending limit constrains biodiesel use and advocates 30% biodiesel blends in closed heavy-duty fleets and 100% biodiesel. Those proposals are advocacy, not newly granted approvals for all vehicles.

    Why it matters:Provides German market data that distinguishes HVO imports from biodiesel sales.

    INERATEC and Ramboll advance FEED for ERA ONE e-SAF upgrading

    INERATEC and Ramboll are working on front-end engineering design for an upgrading unit at the ERA ONE power-to-liquids plant in Frankfurt-Höchst. The proposed addition would integrate hydroisomerization, hydrocracking and distillation to convert Fischer-Tropsch crude into usable synthetic aviation fuel on site. Pre-FEED is complete, but the upgrading expansion is still in engineering; the announcement does not establish that the new unit is commissioned.
