CleanJoule Expands Salt Lake City, Utah, Production Operations

12/29/2024
CleanJoule, a full-performance sustainable aviation fuel company, plans to expand its production operations in Salt Lake City, Utah. The $150 million project is expected to create approximately 100 jobs.

“Utah has an incredible talent pool and excellent leadership at the city and state levels. Utah’s business-friendly legislature has been instrumental in allowing us to attract outside capital and drive growth,” said Mukund Karanjikar, CEO and founder of CleanJoule. “We see immense potential in the Salt Lake City community and are excited to be part of an ecosystem that values forward-thinking approaches and cultivates an environment where businesses and individuals alike can thrive."

CleanJoule is commercializing its novel technology to transform abundant biomass residue into Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF).

"CleanJoule’s transformative work in sustainable aviation fuels exemplifies the innovation and collaboration that thrive in Utah’s business-friendly environment," noted Scott Cuthbertson, president of EDCUtah. "By driving advancements in fuel efficiency and sustainability, CleanJoule is shaping the future of aviation and strengthening Utah’s position as a hub for cutting-edge aerospace solutions."

“Salt Lake City is thrilled about the expansion of CleanJoule and the additional jobs they’ll bring to our residents. This homegrown success story is a perfect example of the magic that happens at the University of Utah Research Park, which then translates into sustainable manufacturing that’s good for the environment and the economy,” added Lorena Riffo Jenson, director of Salt Lake City’s Department of Economic Development. “When a company chooses to expand here, it reinforces that Salt Lake City is a place where businesses prosper. And when businesses prosper, our families, friends, and community thrive.”
