Clean Planet Group has received a strategic investment from FTAI Infrastructure (NASDAQ: FIP), managed by Fortress Investment Group. This marks the next phase of a partnership focused on scaling advanced waste-plastics recycling and sustainable fuels infrastructure across Europe and North America.
The expanded investment builds on the previous collaboration between FTAI Infrastructure and Clean Planet Group in the US and reflects a growing ambition to advance Clean Planet’s technology, project pipeline and international market opportunity.
The strengthened partnership broadens FTAI Infrastructure’s support beyond individual US project development to the wider Clean Planet platform.
Clean Planet operates across three integrated divisions: Energy, which develops, builds and operates advanced recycling facilities; Technologies, which focuses on proprietary refining processes and low-carbon fuels innovations; and the Clean Planet Foundation, the not-for-profit arm supporting education, engagement and impact. Together, our platform addresses two structurally linked global challenges: unmanaged plastic waste and the decarbonisation of hard-to-abate sectors.
Clean Planet Technologies’ progress in plastics-to-SAF aligns closely with FTAI Infrastructure’s long-standing commitment to sustainability and energy-transition assets and reflects the growing importance of SAF as a scalable, near-term solution for reducing aviation emissions. Last month, Clean Planet Technologies received grant support through the UK Government’s Department for Transport’s SAF Clearing House.
Dr Andrew Odjo, CTO and Co-Founder of Clean Planet Group, added:
“FTAI Infrastructure has been a committed and highly aligned partner, and this next phase of investment enables our ambition to scale internationally. Beyond our established advanced recycling business, we are building a technology-led platform that can supply lower-carbon fuels to sectors that urgently need them, which makes this a particularly exciting moment for the Clean Planet.”
The extended partnership will support the continued rollout of Clean Planet’s ecoPlant facilities, which produce circular feedstocks for downstream petrochemical manufacturers, further development of its clean fuels technology portfolio, and progression towards commercial-scale SAF production.
