Industry veterans bring multi-billion-dollar infrastructure and energy optimization expertise to advance Spiritus’ first commercial scale Wyoming project

Spiritus, a technology company engineering integrated energy infrastructure with built-in carbon management for power intensive customers, today announced the appointment of Mayur Sathe, PhD, from LanzaTech as Senior Director of Process Engineering, and Matt Arcy from Chevron as Project Development Advisor, both effective immediately.

These key additions to Spiritus' leadership team come as the company advances toward commercial scale deployment in Wyoming, building on partnerships that combine energy, carbon capture, and infrastructure innovation. Their multidisciplinary expertise will boost the company's growing technical team across materials science, chemical engineering, and project development.

Dr. Sathe arrives from LanzaTech, where he led efficiency improvements for carbon capture and recycling technology. At Spiritus, he will lead process engineering across the company’s system, focusing on how kinetics, plant design, and heat use are configured so that facilities can run with lower power demand and predictable operating costs at scale.

Arcy’s background includes his role as Technical Director of Wheatstone LNG for Chevron, where he managed billions of dollars of natural gas and LNG projects. As Project Development Advisor, he will work on both the previously announced Wyoming site and future developments, accelerating timelines and speed to market. His experience using advanced digital tools and automation to optimize energy infrastructure development will help navigate the complexities of building modular, utility scale power and carbon facilities.

“Mayur and Matt are joining Spiritus because they know we are building infrastructure that has to perform at the same standard as the largest energy assets in the world,” said Charles Cadieu, CEO and co-founder of Spiritus. “Mayur has spent his career making complex industrial systems more efficient and controllable, and he will apply that discipline to our system as we move from pilots into full-scale deployment in Wyoming, driving down energy use and operating cost. Matt has taken multi-billion-dollar projects from concept through construction and operation, and his judgment will shape how we sequence sites, manage risk, and deliver carbon removal as dependable infrastructure for the customers and communities that will rely on it.”
