Twelve and the Race to Make Fuel From Air
Episode 247
Wednesday, 28 October, 2026

Twelve represents a compelling model for climate innovation because it is attempting to redesign the molecular foundation of products society already depends on.The company is not only developing a carbon-capture system. It is building a platform intended to turn captured carbon into useful, commercially valuable products.If Twelve succeeds, renewable electricity could become a major manufacturing input, while carbon dioxide could become an industrial resource rather than simply a waste product.The opening of AirPlant One marks a meaningful transition. Twelve is no longer working only with a laboratory concept or small pilot. It has entered the much more difficult stage of operating, financing, and scaling physical infrastructure.The company’s biggest challenge now is scale.If it can meet that challenge, the phrase “made from air” could eventually describe far more of the material world around us.In This EpisodeWe explore:How Twelve converts carbon dioxide, water, and electricity into fuels and chemicalsThe science behind its carbon-transformation platformWhy aviation is one of the company’s first major marketsHow E-Jet differs from conventional jet fuelWhat the opening of AirPlant One representsWhy early customers are essential to financing climate infrastructureThe role of corporate, project, and debt capitalThe economic and operational challenges facing power-to-liquid fuelsWhat Twelve must prove as it moves toward larger facilitiesLearn MoreVisit TwelveExplore the AirPlant platformLearn about E-Jet sustainable aviation fuelFollow Twelve on LinkedIn ----------------------------------------Disruptors for GOOD is powered by Causeartist, a nonprofit media company dedicated to bridging the gap between capital and culture by spotlighting founders, investors, and organizations reimagining how business can serve people and the planet.Through storytelling, events, and open-access education, Causeartist helps create a shared language of impact, inspiring more founders to build with purpose and more funders to invest with intention.By amplifying ideas and innovations across industries, Causeartist transforms awareness into action and cultivates a community where paying it forward is part of the foundation for growth.
