Germany commissions DLR to plan pilot plant for industrial-scale production of electricity-based kerosene for aviation
By switching to electricity-based kerosene, we can save millions of tons of CO
2 emissions in air traffic. But for this we need several million tons of climate-neutral fuel by 2030. Electricity-based fuels are currently not yet produced in marketable quantities. That is why we commissioned DLR to work with partners from research and industry to design a production system so that we can produce the fuel economically and put it into use more quickly. Because our goal is to fly climate-neutral. Federal Minister Andreas Scheuer
The DLR Institute for Combustion Technology in Stuttgart is developing the conceptual and technical design together with the Technical University of Hamburg and John Brown Voest GmbH of the Griesemann Group.
