In this episode of DeepTech 101, we dive into the exciting world of synthetic fuels—drop-in hydrocarbons made from renewable electricity, captured CO₂, and water. You’ll learn how Power-to-Liquid and Power-to-Gas processes turn wind and solar into jet fuel, shipping diesel, and industrial feedstocks, all compatible with today’s engines and pipelines. We spotlight leading players—from pilot plants at Sunfire and Carbon Engineering to offtake deals with major airlines—and explore why rising carbon prices, sustainable aviation mandates, and modular “e-fuel” gigafactories are driving a rapidly growing multi-billion-dollar market. Tune in to understand the technology, economics, and policy levers that will make synthetic fuels a cornerstone of a truly circular energy economy.
