HIF Global, the world leader in highly innovative fuels, through its subsidiary HIF Chile, has signed an agreement with Porsche AG and Shell for the delivery of e-Fuels produced by HIF’s Haru Oni e-Fuels facility in Punta Arenas, Chile.
HIF is delivering e-Gasoline produced at the HIF Haru Oni e-Fuels facility in Chile to Shell’s Technology Centre in Hamburg, Germany. The e-Gasoline will be blended by Shell and then used by Porsche at different lighthouse events to showcase their compatibility with existing combustion engines.
Cesar Norton, President & CEO of HIF Global, said: “We have been operating the world’s first e-Fuels facility in Chile for two years, helping demonstrate the success of e-Fuels in cars and ships. The collaborative effort of HIF, Porsche, and Shell will showcase the potential of e-Gasoline as part of our ongoing effort to provide advanced, sustainable fuels. At HIF, we are developing a portfolio of commercial scale facilities in Chile, Uruguay, Brazil, Australia, and the US, working with our partners to deliver secure and clean solutions for growing worldwide energy demand.”
