Porsche said it thinks aviation and ocean shipping companies might also be interested in eFuels. Some of Porsche's HIF investment will be spent bringing eFuel production sites to places other than Chile, such as the U.S. Carbon neutral fuels are those that neither contribute to nor reduce the amount of carbon into the atmosphere. Figure 1: Fuel cell provided with renewable electricity, steam, and nitrogen to produce ammonia for energy storage and oxygen as a byproduct. Methanol is a carbon-neutral fuel of interest in. Ammonia is primarily produced through the Haber-Bosch process, which relies on natural gas (for the hydrogen) and air (for the nitrogen), making it carbon-intensive, and resulting in CO 2 emissions. if you use a designed fuel, you cannot use this fuel in the existing car fleet." Bioethanol can be used for carbon-neutral transportation, power generation, and heating. "The answer is no, we do not plan to design new combustion-engine technology for a specifically designed eFuel," he said. Porsche could probably design a fuel for a specific engine, but whatever efficiency gains you might find wouldn’t solve the main problem: letting old 911s continue to cruise the streets without contributing much of anything to global warming. That fuel works in any car that burns gasoline, which is exactly what a carbon-neutral needs to do, Steiner said. It is necessary to offer a variety of energy options to meet the needs of diverse vehicles, regions. HIF expects to start producing eFuel in Chile in the middle of this year. To achieve carbon neutrality, it is important to not only promote the widespread adoption of electrified vehicles through new car sales, but also to reduce the CO 2 emitted by vehicles used by customers in their daily lives. HIF’s eFuel production method, developed with help from Siemens Energy and ExxonMobil, uses wind power to turn hydrogen and CO2 into a liquid fuel. Porsche’s $75 million investment is enough to give the automaker a stake in HIF of around 12.5 percent. "But in terms of consumed fuel, it is our target to take care that all the fuel that is consumed by, for example, 911s will be provided as eFuel, but not at every location." "Whether we offer everywhere in the world, I would say no," he said.
CARBON NEUTRAL FUELS DRIVERS
Porsche wants to provide its drivers with this option wherever feasible. If you can do that, and still drive a liquid-fueled car, why not make it a 911? Steiner said. Porsche knows that it doesn’t matter in the big picture if you say you're eliminating carbon emissions from this model or that one the key is to get fossil fuels out of the picture. "Besides racing and the Porsche Experience Center, the iconic 911 is the main focus for our eFuel project," Steiner said.
