Prometheus Fuels
Carbon-neutral liquid fuels from direct air capture and electrochemistry.

Prometheus Fuels produces carbon-neutral liquid fuels such as kerosene, diesel, and methanol by capturing CO2 directly from the air and converting it via a fully electrochemical process. The technology can leverage low-cost off-grid solar to make zero-net-carbon fuels cost-competitive with fossil fuels. Applications span aviation, shipping, data center energy storage, and defense fuel supply.
CO2 is captured directly from the air and converted into liquid hydrocarbon fuels through a 100% electrochemical process powered by renewable electricity.
