🇫🇮 Norsk e-Fuel and Aurora Infrastructure to collaborate in Rauma
March 10, 2026
Norsk e-Fuel and Aurora Infrastructure have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to cooperate on the development of Norsk e-Fuel’s Project Rauma in Finland. The partnership focuses on the development and construction of the electrical infrastructure—such as grid connection and substation—required to enable the large-scale production of synthetic, sustainable aviation fuel (e-SAF).
Under the MoU, the partners will explore a model in which Aurora Infrastructure designs, finances, builds, owns, and operates the electrical infrastructure for the planned e-SAF plant. This separation of energy infrastructure from fuel production will allow Norsk e-Fuel to concentrate on its core expertise in developing Power-to-Liquid plants, while supporting stronger overall project economics.
“Access to robust, reliable electrical infrastructure is a prerequisite for large-scale e-SAF production,” says Lars Bjørn Larsen, CCO at Norsk e-Fuel. “By partnering with Aurora Infrastructure, we can reduce capital intensity in the project, improve returns, and focus fully on developing and constructing the fuel production plant. This MoU marks another important step towards realising our projects in Finland.”
“We are proud to partner with Norsk e-Fuel, an innovative leader in the sustainable aviation fuel business. Their upcoming projects in Rauma, but also in Tornio and Imatra will have a significant positive impact both locally, regionally and throughout the Nordics,” says Robin Lindahl, CEO of Aurora Infrastructure.
In October 2024, Norsk e-Fuel secured exclusive access to 14 hectares of land in the Port of Rauma. This is sufficient space for an e-Fuel plant with an annual production volume of up to 100 million litres. In collaboration with Fortum, an energy company, and the Port of Rauma, Norsk e-Fuel has begun the planning and permitting processes for electricity grid connections to establish a new e-Fuel production facility.
