Project Starling launches website for local FAQ ahead of planning permission

If you live or work in West Cumbria, you’ve likely heard about Project Starling - our flagship facility being developed right here at the Port of Workington.

We know you have questions about what this means for our community, from local jobs and construction timelines to how clean jet fuel is actually made. That’s why we’ve set up a dedicated info hub on our website to share clear, transparent answers.

While the project is still developing step-by-step, we want to be completely open about where things stand today and what comes next:

- 500+ construction jobs and 100+ skilled permanent roles planned for West Cumbria.
- A circular approach turning local carbon emissions into high-value synthetic SAF.
- Long-term green investment for Britain’s Energy Coast.

Head over to our new page, check out the FAQs, and let us know your thoughts.

We’re excited to keep this conversation going with you!
