25 Mar 2024

Infinium has announced the successful operation of Project Pathfinder, the world's first commercial-scale facility for producing electrofuels (eFuels) in Corpus Christi, Texas, U.S.A. This plant continuously produces synthetic, ultra-low carbon eFuels that can be integrated into existing heavy transportation and chemical processing applications.

Infinium has announced the successful operation of Project Pathfinder, the world's first commercial-scale facility for producing electrofuels (eFuels) in Corpus Christi, Texas, U.S.A. This plant continuously produces synthetic, ultra-low carbon eFuels that can be integrated into existing heavy transportation and chemical processing applications.


Infinium's eFuels are created using a patented process that combines captured carbon dioxide (CO2) and green hydrogen from renewable power sources. The resulting eFuels, including sustainable aviation fuel (eSAF), eDiesel, and eNaphtha, are free of sulfur and produced without process emissions. These eFuels have received ISCC PLUS certification, signifying their sustainability and traceability. Infinium is based in Sacramento, California, U.S.A.


Project Pathfinder integrates Infinium's fuel production technology, on-site electrolyzers, a laboratory, and logistics and delivery mechanisms. The facility was constructed and commissioned under Infinium's supervision, with the company also responsible for operations and maintenance. Robert Schuetzle, CEO at Infinium, highlights the company's control of the eFuels production process, enabling rapid acceleration of additional projects and global production scale-up.


Project Pathfinder is Infinium's eFuels Center of Excellence, providing key learnings and identifying best practices for current and future projects. This includes process optimizations, development programs, operator and staff training, and construction and execution expertise to ensure standardization for future projects.


Infinium is developing more than a dozen additional eFuels projects across the United States, European Union, Japan, and Australia. The company aims to decarbonize the world by providing electrofuels as a cleaner alternative for transportation and chemical processing. With backing from cleantech investors like Amazon, Infinium is poised to make a significant impact in reducing carbon emissions.
