ExxonMobil recently announced an agreement with alternative fuels developer Global Clean Energy to purchase renewable diesel. The engine-ready fuel will be partially derived from camelina, a plant that does not...
Imagine turning agricultural leftovers into low-emission biofuel. That is, taking plant parts like inedible cornstalks and fueling our cars, trucks, boats and planes. ExxonMobil and its partners at Clariant and...
No single company, organization or institution has all the answers when it comes to developing tomorrow’s low-emission energy. That’s why global energy company ExxonMobil is partnering with a range of...
Researching algae takes science, sunshine, some very large ponds and the right kind of algae.
Scaling algae production to have the technical ability to produce 10,000 barrels of algae biofuel a day is an...
If you had told me a few years ago that one day I’d be farming algae with the hope of creating a reliable, low-emission energy source, I probably would have been a little skeptical. But that’s exactly what I...
Synthetic Genomics (SGI) and ExxonMobil have worked together for a decade now, driven by a single goal: Create a pathway to refine algae oils into low-emission diesel that can power trucks, boats, even planes.
The science behind converting farming or plant leftovers into next-generation, lower-emission biodiesel could one day transform how heavy-duty drivers fill their tanks
To a kid, using algae for fuel may sound strange, but to ExxonMobil’s scientists, biofuel made from algae has the potential to be a major player in a low-carbon energy future.
At a research farm nestled in Southern California’s Imperial County, Synthetic Genomics and ExxonMobil are cultivating acres of energy-rich algae. Their goal: Have the technical ability to produce 10,000 barrels...
Don’t underestimate the potential energy in an algae pond or a pile of cornhusks.
ExxonMobil is working to create the next generation of biofuels: energy sources that are sustainable and literally green.
