P 2 X

Despite its massive potential, P 2 X is, at least on the surface, quite a simple idea.

As a term, P 2 X  covers a family of processes that use an electrolyzer to convert renewable power (P) into green hydrogen, the base reactant that can be transformed into a whole spectrum of energy carriers (X).

For example, this ‘X’ typically designates a variety of derivatives such as eMethanol, green ammonia and Sustainable Aviation Fuel (eSAF), as well as other chemicals and fuels that can be used across industries.

 

 

By changing the form of renewable energy from electricity to molecules, we make it more fit for decarbonizing industries that cannot be directly electrified fully and at scale. P 2 X  is the bridge between a wind turbine and sustainable aviation fuel; a solar farm and carbon-free shipping; and the world’s most carbon intensive industries and a net-zero future.
