"We're honored to receive this recognition from Reuters, which highlights the role innovation must play in solving the toughest climate challenges," said Jimmy Samartzis, Chief Executive Officer of LanzaJet.

The Reuters Global Energy Transition Awards were created to recognize and celebrate those driving bold, scalable solutions that are accelerating the world's shift to a low-carbon energy system. The Accelerating Decarbonization award specifically honors technologies that demonstrate measurable impact on CO₂ emissions reduction and offer commercial scalability.
