HIF Global, a leader in innovative fuels, has announced that it has been awarded the first US approval for an e-fuels pathway. The Tier II Design Pathway Certification, granted under the California Air Resource Board’s (CARB) Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) Programme, strengthens the market for e-fuels production.
Meg Gentle, Executive Director of the HIF Global Board, stated: “e-fuels are synthetic hydrocarbons that seamlessly integrate with today’s existing infrastructure and engines. This LCFS certification underscores the growing demand for e-fuels in the US and globally, which could reach more than 250 million tpy by 2035, providing opportunity for over US$1 trillion in potential capital investment in new facilities to produce the fuels, including HIF Global’s 1.4 million tpy e-fuels project in Matagorda County, Texas.”
HIF‘s Tier II Design Pathway Certification includes e-SAF, e-Naphtha, and e-Diesel as opt-in fuels allowing producers to apply and generate credits for their e-fuels under the programme.
