40 MW plant in development. Commercial operation targeted for 2030–31.

Turtle Island Power Incorporated

Powered by Water. Driven by Vision.

A 40 megawatt power-to-liquid plant in British Columbia, making green hydrogen, electro Sustainable Aviation Fuel, renewable diesel, and naphtha. Commercial operation is targeted for 2030–31.

Four products. One plant.

Green hydrogen is made on site. It is the feedstock for three liquid fuels. The planned split at 40 MW is about 55 percent eSAF, 30 percent renewable diesel, and 15 percent naphtha.

  • Green hydrogen

    Hydrogen made by splitting water with renewable electricity. Used in the plant, and available to customers who need the molecule.

  • eSAF

    electro Sustainable Aviation Fuel. A synthetic jet fuel made from green hydrogen and carbon dioxide taken from the air.

  • Renewable diesel

    A diesel for trucks and equipment, made in the same train as the jet fuel, for engines that already burn diesel.

  • Naphtha

    The light cut. A synthetic fuel in the gasoline and chemical-feedstock range. Some buyers know it as an e-gasoline stream.

Fuel supply for the years the rules change.

Airlines, trucking, and heavy industry in Canada are preparing for 2030 and 2050. TIPI Canada is developing a physical supply of lower-carbon fuels in British Columbia, timed to that decade.

We intend to become a leading green hydrogen supply chain for hard-to-abate industries in the country.

Electricity in. Liquid fuel out.

  1. 01

    Renewable electricity splits water into green hydrogen.

  2. 02

    Direct air capture collects carbon dioxide.

  3. 03

    Hydrogen and carbon dioxide are converted into a synthetic liquid.

  4. 04

    The liquid is separated into eSAF, renewable diesel, and naphtha.

The same site is planned as a training centre for the technicians, trades, drivers, and first responders this work will need.

How the project is phased

On the same ground

A sweet produced-fluid plant. Not a disposal facility.

The first plant of its kind planned to take sweet produced fluid only. It is cleaned and polished until it can be used as process fluid in the hydrogen and eSAF train. Water leaving the fuel plant returns to the same cycle. The only solid that leaves is a salt cake, ready for a dirty-dirt site.

  1. 01

    Sweet produced fluid comes in. Nothing is taken for disposal.

  2. 02

    It is cleaned and polished to process-fluid quality.

  3. 03

    That fluid runs the hydrogen and eSAF train.

  4. 04

    Waste fluid from the fuel plant returns. What remains is a salt cake.

See it on the project

Canada has almost no domestic SAF production.

Aviation is one of the hardest sectors to decarbonize. The 2030 and 2050 targets need Canadian-made low-carbon fuels, and no commercial facility is yet training the workforce that industry will need.

200M L
Federal low-carbon fuel target by 2030–31.
7.5M L
Procured so far, against that target.
275M L
A 3% eSAF blend, each year from 2030.
