Porsche, Siemens Energy and partners advance climate-neutral eFuels development; Haru Oni pilot in Chile

Green Car Congress

Electrolyzers will use wind power to produce green hydrogen. In a second step, plans call for filtering CO 2 out of the air and then combining it with the green hydrogen to form synthetic methanol. In the pilot phase, e-Methanol production will initially reach around 750,000 liters per year by 2022.
