Running cars on E-Fuels, made with CO2 from the air and green Hydrogen?🚗⛽🌿⚡
E-Fuels, so the story goes, could allow using existing cars and infrastructure like gas stations. However, E-Fuels are extremely inefficient.
In 2022, Siemens Energy, Porsche, and the Chilean company HIF inaugurated the Haru Oni pilot plant in Chile's windy Magallanes region, which turns CO2 and Hydrogen into Methanol and small amounts of Gasoline. How's it going? 🧵

What's up with the Production of E-Fuels in Chile?
In 2022, Siemens Energy, Porsche, and HIF inaugurated a pilot plant for the production of E-Methanol and E-Gasoline in southern Chile. The Haru Oni plant was intended to be just the beginning — with plans for large-scale production just a few years later. However, it does not look like that will ever happen.
