About

Because of our proprietary technology's capabilities, we aim to develop an off-grid system capable of producing locally thousands of tons of ready-to-use fuels, such as the fuel of the future—methanol—as well as today's NATO standard F-34 and F-44 fuels.

NATO militaries currently spend significant time and resources ensuring the logistics of fuel for their transport and military equipment, this logistics chain often involves a combination of ships, cargo planes and convoys. These supply networks are not only time-consuming and expensive but also become extremely vulnerable when operating close to active combat zones.

With the development of various technologies, the concept of local fuel production is appearing in early development phases, namely in the USA and Germany. ETGAS is a frontrunner in this area already possessing industrial-scale and ready technology capable of converting any solid biomass and waste to hydrocarbon gas, which in downstream processes can be synthesized to methane, methanol, as well as kerosene, the basis of NATO fuel standards.

We believe that our approach and concept has the potential to be the most efficient solution by:

(1) being focused on locally available waste or biomass feedstocks,

(2) ability to work in off-grid mode,

(3) plant can be deployed within a few weeks anywhere in the world.

Small-scale (several thousand tons of fuel per year), relatively mobile and rapidly deployable synthetic fuel production systems would decouple fuel from often constrained logistics and deter adversary attacks, while ensuring the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and the sustainability of military operations.

We are seeking an investor or/and a strategic partner willing to co-invest in the development of a commercial first-of-a-kind waste-to-fuels Demo plant in Europe, thus demonstrating the global militaries' technology capabilities from both production and plant deployment perspectives.
