Company mission

To decarbonise the transportation industry, devoting technology, time and talent to advancing the transition to sustainable low-carbon fuels.

Our take

XFuel is developing sustainable and net-zero road, marine and aviation drop-in fuels for distributors and consumers. The company's patented technology converts biomass waste into a clean drop-in, low-carbon advanced fuel that is compatible with existing ISO marine fossil fuel specifications.

With funding raised from several investment organisations, including AENU, Union Square Ventures, HAX, and SOSV, XFuel plans to utilise the capital gained to drive the commercialisation of its technologies and assist in deploying a pipeline of global projects.

XFuel's biorefining technologies will play a key role in global decarbonisation across the automotive and haulage sectors as well as in the hard-to-decarbonise industries like shipping and aviation. XFuel is unlocking all new possibilities for all kinds of industries to decarbonise through its innovative technologies.
