Audi e-Fuel
Audi continues to implement its plan on creation of environment-oriented types of fuel called as e-fuel. The world-known car-maker, in collaboration with Ineratec GmbH and Energiedienst Holding AG, is determined to construct the facility specialized in e-diesel manufacturing.
It is expected that the annual manufacturing volume will figure up to 400 thousand liters. Due to this innovation, СO2 emissions caused by IC engines will be kept to a minimum. The manufacture of GtL fuel consists of the hydropower energy surplus conversion. The first results of this promising initiative are expected in 2018. It is not the first Audi undertaking in this field. Audi has already been cooperating for several years with Sunfire company located in Germany.
Sunfire also works on development of e-fuel, but with the help of another technological approaches. Moreover, Audi has its own facility in Germany, which produces e-gas for some Audi models contributing to cutting CO2 emissions by 80 percent.
