eFuels bei EB Brühl

eFuels are the global solution to a global challenge

Why?
Because with eFuels, vehicles and systems can be used in a climate-neutral way worldwide today and in the future.

The fight against climate change is a global challenge and therefore requires global solutions.
The eFuel Alliance, of which EB Brühl is a member, is committed to the EU’s 2050 climate protection targets and wants to actively support the transition to sustainable, modern and competitive economies in the EU.
Achieving the ambitious climate protection targets and successfully driving forward the energy transition requires the use of technological innovations, which can only be guaranteed through genuine technological openness.
These technological solutions must be applicable throughout the EU, but also in regions outside of Europe – regardless of their economic and purchasing power, topographical conditions or technical requirements.

Electricity-based eFuels and biogenic synthetic fuels are one such solution.
They are the alternative to conventional liquid fuels and combustibles and are therefore ideally suited to significantly and affordably reducing CO2 emissions in the transport and heating market – all the way to climate neutrality.

How are eFuels produced?

The production of eFuels is based on the extraction of hydrogen.
This is produced by an electrolysis process that breaks down water – for example seawater from desalination plants – into its components hydrogen and oxygen.
Electricity is required for this process and for all further production steps.

In a second process step, the hydrogen is converted into a liquid energy carrier, eFuel, with CO2 extracted from the air using Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.
Under high pressure and with the help of a catalyst, the hydrogen combines with the CO2.
The use of electricity in the production process is referred to as a “power-to-liquid” process: Electricity is converted into a synthetic liquid that is technically easy to store and transport.

After processing in refineries, this eFuel can be used as ePetrol, eDiesel, eHeating oil, eKerosene and eGas and can completely replace conventional fuels.
Thanks to their “drop-in” capability, eFuels can also be blended with conventional fuels in any ratio.
The existing logistics, distribution and tank infrastructure, such as tank farms, tank trucks, pipelines and filling stations, can continue to be used.

The climate neutrality of eFuels is due to the fact that, on the one hand, electricity from renewable energies is used in their production and, on the other hand, only as much CO2 is emitted during use as was previously bound during production.
eFuels can therefore make a climate-neutral contribution in all sectors in which conventional fuels are currently used, such as the transport and heating sectors in buildings.

Two problems of the energy transition can be solved with eFuels: The storability and transportability of renewable energies.
Due to their high energy density and transportability at room pressure and temperature, renewable energies can be produced easily and economically worldwide and transported to any place in the world where they are needed using existing technical means.
The Global PtX Potential Atlas, published by the Fraunhofer Institute for Energy Economics and Energy System Technology and funded by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, shows which regions are suitable for the production of eFuels .
