Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank Invests in Infinium

Japan - April 14, 2026

Infinium Holdings, Inc. announced today that Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank, Limited (SuMiTB) has made an impact equity investment in the company, expanding Infinium's presence in the Japanese market.

SuMiTB, one of Japan's leading trust banks, has been driving impact equity investments since April 2022 to support initiatives that address critical social challenges. The investment will support Infinium's efforts to scale its eFuels technology and strengthen collaboration in Japan, where securing a stable supply of sustainable aviation fuel is a national priority.

Infinium's proprietary technology produces electrofuels — including electro-sustainable aviation fuel (eSAF) — from carbon dioxide and green hydrogen. The resulting fuels reduce greenhouse gas emissions by more than 90% compared to conventional fossil fuels and can be used as drop-in replacements without modifications to existing aircraft engines or infrastructure.

"Japan has set ambitious decarbonization targets for aviation, and we see opportunity to support that transition with our eFuels technology," said Robert Schuetzle, President and CEO of Infinium. "SuMiTB's investment reflects the growing international recognition that eFuels are a practical, scalable solution for hard-to-abate sectors, and we are proud to deepen our ties with one of Japan's most respected financial institutions."
