Jet fuel made from seawater? A new joint venture involving Eskasoni First Nation is betting on it.

Eskasoni has invested $1.5 million to become the majority owner of eFuels Mi’kmaq, which plans to build a pilot project in Sydney Harbour next year.

The goal is to produce jet fuel using hydrogen extracted from seawater and carbon dioxide from the air, with the potential to create up to 80 jobs by 2030.

Could Cape Breton become a hub for this kind of fuel technology?
