HOUSTON, July 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Syzygy Plasmonics is rewriting the rules of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production with a first-of-its-kind commercial project in Uruguay—now supported by Fischer-Tropsch technology leader Velocys. The NovaSAF 1 facility will convert dairy waste and biogas into drop-in jet fuel with a nameplate capacity of 500,000 gallons annually, using only renewable electricity and waste gas—no green hydrogen, no complex gasification.

At the heart of the project is Syzygy’s light-driven GHG e-Reforming technology, which produces the ideal 2:1 syngas ratio for Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis directly from biogenic methane and CO₂. This breakthrough eliminates the need for water-intensive steam reforming or expensive electrolyzers, radically simplifying the SAF value chain.

To convert that syngas into high-yield jet fuel, Syzygy has selected Velocys and its microFTL technology, known for reliability and for maximizing fuel output, both critical factors in driving down the total cost required to produce synthetic fuel.

“This project proves that profitable SAF production doesn’t have to wait on future infrastructure,” said Trevor Best, CEO of Syzygy Plasmonics. “With Velocys, we’re bringing in a complete, modular solution that drives down overall production costs and is ready to scale. Uruguay is only the start.”

“We’re proud to bring our FT technology into a project that’s changing the game,” said Matthew Viergutz, CEO of Velocys. “This is what innovation looks like—fast, flexible, and focused on making SAF production affordable.”

NovaSAF 1 Project Highlights:

• Nameplate Capacity: 500,000 gallons/year of ASTM D7566-compliant SAF
• Feedstocks: Dairy waste, biogenic methane, and CO₂
• Power Source: 100% renewable electricity
• Technology: Syzygy’s NovaSAF™ platform + Velocys’ microFTL™ technology
• FID: Q4 2025 | Start of Operations: Q1 2027
• Certifications in Progress: CORSIA, EU RED II and RFNBO, LCFS, U.S. RFS
• With its modular design and feedstock flexibility, NovaSAF 1 is built for replication across 50,000+ untapped biogas sites worldwide—unlocking a new era of profitable, policy-aligned SAF production.

About Syzygy Plasmonics
Syzygy Plasmonics develops light-driven chemical reactors that electrify and decarbonize fuel and chemical production. Based in Houston, the company’s NovaSAF™ platform converts biogenic CO₂ and methane into ultra-low carbon fuels using renewable electricity.

About Velocys
Velocys is a leader in advanced biofuels technology, providing compact, high-yield Fischer-Tropsch reactor technology for sustainable fuel production.

SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Renewable America has launched a new brand identity, including a redesigned logo that reflects its growth, mission, and long-term vision for community-focused clean energy.

Inspired by Renewable America’s commitment to solar energy, the new logo is based on an analemma—the path the sun traces across the sky over the course of a year from a fixed point on Earth. This flowing, infinity-like shape captures the principles of circular economy, environmental harmony, and sustainable impact central to Renewable America’s mission.

“The analemma symbolizes our values—our respect for nature and our belief in building solar energy systems that will help sustain communities for generations,” said Ardi Arian, President and CEO of Renewable America. “This brand update reflects who we are and where we’re headed. We’re proud to bring solar and storage solutions to communities often overlooked—and to do it with a bottom-up approach that prioritizes trust, partnership, and long-term value.”

This updated visual identity replaces previous abbreviations with the full company name—Renewable America—to emphasize the company’s mission to customers, landowners, community partners, and energy buyers. The logo’s vibrant color palette—blue for the sky, orange for the sun, and green for the natural world—reinforces the company’s deep ties to environmental stewardship.

The new branding comes at a pivotal time for Renewable America, which has experienced rapid growth over the past several years. As a lean, hard-working team delivering end-to-end development—from land acquisition and engineering to financing, construction, and long-term operations—Renewable America has successfully scaled projects across California, supporting the rise of local energy grids, energy independence, and community resilience.

Renewable America’s brand refresh aligns with its continued focus on offering complete, locally generated clean energy solutions as a trusted, community-centered partner.

About Renewable America
Renewable America is a leading provider of distributed energy resources, serving communities with small utility-scale, locally generated solar plus storage facilities and community microgrids that work in conjunction with the distribution grid. With over 15 years of experience in development, engineering, procurement, and construction throughout Europe and North America, Renewable America creates resilience within communities by delivering local power to local load. The company’s end-to-end development process maximizes quality and efficiency, while minimizing lasting environmental impact on site.

Recent Form 8-K Filing Indicates that Tisch and Bielli Led Board Has Learned Nothing about Disclosure and Transparency from the Company’s Recent Proxy Fight

Urges Tejon Ranch’s Board of Directors to Disclose Full Details Surrounding Brett Brown’s Departure  

Calls on Tejon’s Independent Directors to Follow the Recommendations of Leading Proxy Advisory Firms in Adopting PFS Trusts Shareholder Proposal that Received 49.3% of the Vote

PALO ALTO, Calif., July 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Glenbrook Capital Management (“Glenbrook” or “we”), a long-time shareholder of Tejon Ranch Co. (NYSE: TRC) (“Tejon” or the “Company”) with more than 300,000 shares of Tejon, made the following statement regarding the unexplained departure on July 11, 2025 of CFO Brett A. Brown. Grover Wickersham, Chairman of Glenbrook stated:

“There has been no press release or public disclosure other than the statement in a Form 8-K late last Friday that Mr. Brown ‘separated from employment.’ This raises more questions than answers, leaving us disappointed by the Tisch-led board’s apparent continuing disregard for public shareholders. The Form 8-K Friday minimally announced Brett Brown’s abrupt departure as Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, providing no reason or context for the sudden exit of its second most senior executive.

Mr. Brown was Tejon’s sole senior executive with an SEC compliance background and his contributions to Tejon should not be overlooked. At Glenbrook, we were impressed by Mr. Brown’s origination of a very favorable Farm Credit loan on behalf of Tejon, his participation at investor conferences and his improvements to Tejon’s financial disclosure, such as better illuminating G & A expenses. The shareholders deserve to know why Mr. Brown ‘separated from employment.’

Shareholders are left to wonder if there is fire where there is smoke. If Mr. Brown’s exit was related to disagreements over Tejon company policies, operations, or accounting practices – such as failing to take an impairment charge for the obscenely mismanaged Centennial project, then shareholders have the right to know. We believe e SEC disclosure requirements provide that such issues be disclosed fully and promptly.

Tejon’s trademark lack of transparency on such an important development only serves to erode the Company’s dwindling supply of shareholder trust.  For this reason, we again urge the independent directors to retain independent counsel to advise them on changing course.  Tejon’s public shareholders control the majority of Tejon’s outstanding shares. Transparency is essential to building shareholder trust, especially in light of the calls for increased disclosure during the recent proxy contest.

Implementing PFS Trust’s shareholder proposal, which we called on the Board to implement in May, would allow Tejon shareholders owning a combined 10% of outstanding shares to call a special meeting of shareholders. That proposal, combined with adequate disclosure around Mr. Brown’s departure, would go a long way to salvage what little shareholder trust remains. This underscores the vital importance of Tejon shareholders having the ability to hold the Board and management accountable.   

We once again call on the independent directors to implement the PFS Trust shareholder proposal, which was overwhelmingly supported by Tejon’s public shareholders, and to immediately and transparently disclose further details of Mr. Brown’s departure and clearly communicate plans to cover the crucial function that he served.”
