This Company Makes Jet Fuel From Water, Sunlight And CO2 … Dimensional Energy is one of Elemental Excelerator’s latest companies and is considering developing a renewable fuel facility in Hawaii, its chief executive says.
As Hawaii pushes forward with a policy to produce all of its electricity with renewable resources by 2045, there’s always been a problem: What to do about transportation, especially air travel so central to the state’s tourism economy?
Now a startup with Hawaii ties may be about to start changing that.
Dimensional Energy, an eight-person firm operating a pilot project in Arizona, plans soon to start scaling up production of jet fuel produced from renewable resources — most notably carbon dioxide. Although airplanes using Dimensional’s fuel still would generate carbon dioxide from burning fuel, the fuel would essentially use as much carbon as it generates.
The result: zero net carbon emissions.
