Audi “E-Diesel”

April 27th, 2015

It probably costs more per litre than I make in a month, but still interesting.

By the way, aren’t we do for another trillion dollar oil war?

German car manufacturer Audi says it has created the “fuel of the future” made solely from water, carbon dioxide and renewable sources.

The synthetic “e-diesel” was made following a commissioning phase of just four months at a plant in Dresden, Germany.

Unlike regular diesel, the clear fuel does not contain any sulphur or fossil oil, while it has an overall energy efficiency of around 70%.

Germany’s federal minister of education and research, Dr Johanna Wanka, said she has already used the fuel in her Audi A8, while the company hopes the Dresden factory, operated by clean tech company Sunfire, will produce 160 litres of it every day in the coming months.
