Synthetic fuels from renewable energy sources can be a significant contribution on the roadmap to sustainable mobility. Porsche sees electro-mobility as the top priority, but eFuels produced by renewable electricity are an effective addition to support the defossilization of the transportation sector. In addition to the sustainability aspect, the composition and properties of eFuels can be optimized via the synthetic fuel production path. The use of optimized fuel formulations has a direct influence on combustion and emission behavior. The latter is one focus of the development of internal combustion engines in the wake of constantly tightening emissions legislation. The increasing restrictions on vehicles with internal combustion engines require the reduction of emissions. Particulate matter emissions are among others the focus of criticism. The composition and properties of fuels can reduce particulate emissions and the formation of unburned hydrocarbons to a high degree.
