LanzaJet, a leading next-generation fuels technology company, has announced a new agreement with Microsoft to adopt Azure as its preferred cloud platform. This expansion of their partnership marks a significant step in LanzaJet’s global growth strategy, enhancing operational systems, financial platforms, and data-driven decision-making capabilities.
The agreement builds upon a multi-level collaboration between the two companies, including climate investment and renewable fuel offtake agreements.

Key Aspects of the Partnership
- Microsoft Azure will support LanzaJet’s global operations across the U.S., Europe, Asia, and Latin America
- The cloud platform will enhance plant performance monitoring and supply chain optimization
- Azure will provide secure, scalable connectivity and robust data management capabilities
- The partnership reflects a comprehensive collaboration needed to accelerate innovation and scale operations in the clean energy sector
“For early-stage technology companies like LanzaJet, partners matter, and Microsoft has been with us from the start,” said Anne Sidio, Chief Transformation Officer at LanzaJet. “This agreement reflects the kind of collaboration needed to accelerate innovation, scale operations, and build a secure global platform.”
