Electrofuels company Infinium is now successfully operating what they call ‘the world’s first commercial scale facility’ making drop-in ready electrofuels (eFuels) in Corpus Christi, Texas. The project, known as Project Pathfinder, is a continuously operating plant that produces synthetic, ultra-low carbon eFuels that can be used in heavy transportation applications and chemical processes.
The facility integrates Infinium’s novel fuel production technology using patented catalysts with on-site electrolyzers, a state-of-the-art laboratory, logistics, and delivery mechanics to produce, validate, and distribute eFuels in fewer steps than others in the industry. Infinium has controlled the construction and commissioning of the project from start to finish and is responsible for all operations and maintenance.
Project Pathfinder serves as Infinium’s eFuels Center of Excellence, providing key learnings and identifying best practices for current and future projects, including process optimizations, development programs, operator and staff training, and construction and execution expertise to ensure standardization for future projects. Infinium has more than a dozen additional projects under development across the United States, European Union, Japan, and Australia.
