Project Carbon opportunity costs of biofuels in Germany
Runtime 11/2021 – 02/2022
The carbon opportunity costs of biofuels show which emissions could be saved if the cultivation and pro-duction of these fuels were dispensed with. These emissions are higher than the savings from...
moreProject PyroMar
Project start 01/2020
What could new sustainable ways of producing diesel and heavy fuel oil look like? What are the new raw materials? Pyromar is about producing “defossilised”, low-sulphur maritime bunker fuels from...
moreProject Fuels from electricity (eForFuel)
Runtime 03/2018 – 04/2022
eForFuel develops an industrial biotechnology solution that uses electricity and microorganisms to convert CO2 into synthetic hydrocarbon fuels, thus providing a sustainable replacement of fossil...
moreProject Energy efficiency and sustainable transport in Cyprus
Runtime 09/2016 – 06/2017
The “energy efficiency and sustainable transport “ in Cyprus analyses the potential of using alternative fuels, e.g. biofuels, natural gas or electro-mobility, for the road and maritime sectors to...
