Drivers who charge their electric cars on the go often encounter different rates, apps, and additional fees. Especially without their own wallbox, this can make electric mobility expensive and complicated.
Synthetic fuels could therefore offer drivers three key benefits in the future:
1. Continue to use existing vehicles
Internal combustion engines could run on synthetic fuels. Therefore, it would not be necessary to replace the vehicle.
2. Fast and Familiar Fueling
eFuels are liquid fuels. In principle, they could be distributed through existing transportation, storage, and gas station infrastructure—without long refueling times or the need for various refueling apps.
3. Potential for Reduced Greenhouse Gas Emissions
If eFuels are produced using renewable electricity and in compliance with relevant sustainability criteria, they can result in lower greenhouse gas emissions over their entire life cycle than fossil fuels.
