Una vez en funcionamiento, la planta de eFuels de HIF Tasmania, situada a 30 km de Burnie, producirá hasta 100 millones de litros de eFuel neutro en carbono, que podrá utilizarse en motores de coches, camiones, aviones o barcos sin necesidad de modificaciones.
Ignacio Hernandez, HIF Asia Pacific’s CEO, said, “This is a significant step forward for the project and demonstrates our ongoing ability to attract leading players in the world’s energy transition to support our developments. We are on target to submit a development application in 2024 and look forward to working closely with Technip Energies to design a project that will place Tasmania at the centre of an emerging industry helping decarbonize the global transport sector. The HIF Tasmania eFuels Facility is expected to create up to 200 permanent full-time jobs and have output equivalent to decarbonizing around 60,000 vehicles. We will continue to engage the community to deliver benefits locally.”
Paul Browne, Director General del Centro de Operaciones de Technip Energies en Kuala Lumpur, que dirige la región APAC, ha declarado: "Estamos encantados de que HIF Asia Pacific y su empresa matriz HIF Global, líder mundial en la producción de eFuel, nos hayan adjudicado el proyecto. Nuestro compromiso con las soluciones energéticas sostenibles coincide con la visión de nuestro cliente, y esperamos fomentar una asociación sólida y de estrecha colaboración para ofrecer una solución global de combustible sostenible."
Los eFuels se fabrican utilizando electrolizadores alimentados por energías renovables para separar el hidrógeno del oxígeno del agua. El hidrógeno verde se utilizará junto con el dióxido de carbono reciclado para producir eFuels neutros en carbono, que son químicamente equivalentes a los combustibles utilizados en la actualidad y, por tanto, pueden instalarse en los motores existentes sin necesidad de modificaciones.
