8 Greener Skies Ahead, 26. Oktober 2016 Technical Options

9 Generic PtL production pathway PtL production via Fischer-Tropsch (FT) or Methanol (MeOH) synthesis. Both pathways can be made drop-in with conventional jet fuel. Fischer-Tropsch synthetic petroleum fuels (SPKs) are ASTM compliant. Image: LBST & BHL, Power-to-Liquids Potentials and Perspectives for the Future Supply of Renewable Aviation Fuel; UBA (ed.), September 2016

10 The three key constituents of PtL jet fuel Source: Ludwig-Bölkow-Systemtechnik GmbH

11 PtL production efficiencies When using renewable electricity for fuel production, efficiency is one aspect among others in the big picture ; a parameter influencing fuel production costs. When using high-temperature electrolysis cells (SOEC), rather high fuel production efficiencies can be achieved. Plant operation is less flexible compared to low-temperature. Image: LBST & BHL, Power-to-Liquids Potentials and Perspectives for the Future Supply of Renewable Aviation Fuel; UBA (ed.), September 2016

12 Greener Skies Ahead, 26. Oktober 2016 Environmental Side Effects

13 PtL environmental performance GHG well-to-wake (g CO2eq /MJ) -70% (heute) bis -99% (Perspektive) => Near net-zero greenhouse gas emissions when using electricity and CO 2 from renewable sources (high-altitude and black-carbon effects not included here; synthetic fuels reduce particulate emissions) Table: LBST & BHL, Power-to-Liquids Potentials and Perspectives for the Future Supply of Renewable Aviation Fuel; UBA (ed.), September 2016

14 PtL environmental performance Land demand ~15% efficiency Solar-to-electricity <1% efficiency Solar-to-biomass Image: LBST & BHL, Power-to-Liquids Potentials and Perspectives for the Future Supply of Renewable Aviation Fuel; UBA (ed.), September 2016

15 PtL environmental performance Water demand Image: LBST & BHL, Power-to-Liquids Potentials and Perspectives for the Future Supply of Renewable Aviation Fuel; UBA (ed.), September 2016

16 Greener Skies Ahead, 26. Oktober 2016 Economic Aspects

17 PtL production costs?* Crude oil: US$/bbl RE electricity: 40 /MWh e Equiv. operation: 3750 h eq /yr * Fuel costs, taxes/levies, other measures to achieve C 17 Image: LBST & BHL, Power-to-Liquids Potentials and Perspectives for the Future Supply of Renewable Aviation Fuel; UBA (ed.), September 2016

18 Summary Aviation is a major future driver for climate-relevant emissions as long as aircrafts use fossil fuels in combustion engines. Energy crops are a dead end solution. (competition with food; low conversion efficiency; huge water consumption) Call for a robust double strategy: Evolutionary drop-in strategy for PtL jet fuel based on renewable electricity production (renewable energy based; high conversion efficiency, low water consumption) Reduction of high-altitude impacts (hybridization/electrification; climate-optimal routes; rethink growth strategies) Under present market conditions PtL will not come by itself. => Supportive framework is needed, ideally competition-neutral
