Pittsburgh Airport plans to construct the world’s first on-site sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) refinery, producing 120 million gallons annually in partnership with Avina. The project follows its clean-energy microgrid milestone and aligns with its $1.7B tech-forward terminal opening this October. The new facility will enhance accessibility, use predictive AI for operations, and increase energy independence—cementing Pittsburgh’s role as a pioneer in smart, sustainable, and inclusive airport infrastructure.
