"I am particularly excited about on-site visits: on the one hand, to observe the progress of the plant manufacturing in our production hall in Karlsruhe, and on the other hand, to accompany the construction progress at the plant site in Frankfurt. Physically witnessing the progress clearly demonstrates the pioneering work we are doing to advance e-fuel production."

Christina Kuhnle is the manager and head of our pioneering project in Frankfurt. She explains why this e-fuel plant is so significant for Ineratec: "Our project in Frankfurt is the first where Ineratec is primarily responsible for the entire site. In addition, as the operator of the power-to-liquid plant, we will supply major consumers in aviation, mobility, and shipping with sustainable e-fuels." The project is also very special to her personally. "From the beginning, I have experienced at Ineratec that if you want to contribute, you are given the opportunity and necessary trust to do so."

Now, the 29-year-old chemical engineer leads the industrial project, which involves building the world's largest power-to-liquid plant. "On the one hand, through the project, we come into contact with experts and partners from various fields, including authorities, service providers, and suppliers who support us in our construction project. On the other hand, the project also allows me to work directly with so many colleagues in our constantly growing team. This makes my work as a project manager extremely diverse, and every day brings something new."

Christina has been part of the INERATEC team since 2016 and has grown together with the company over the years. "Working at Ineratec is definitely characterized by team spirit and enthusiasm for the cause, which is lived here, and everyone gladly makes their individual contribution. I greatly appreciate that and it motivates me to give my full commitment every day. With the construction and operation of this e-fuel plant, we are one big step closer to our goal of making mobility more climate-friendly."

Pioneer work in progress

In the summer of 2022, production started on the plant modules that will take their place at our site in Frankfurt this year. Since the start of construction, our production team in Karlsruhe has always successfully taken on every challenge that such a pioneering project entails. The common goal of building the world's largest plant for the production of sustainable e-fuels and thus replacing large quantities of fossil fuels motivates us day by day. With our pioneering project in Frankfurt, we are actively contributing to reducing the CO2 emissions of tomorrow's mobility and thus helping to shape a more sustainable future.  

We have been working for over a year now to deliver the plant and install it at Industrial Park Höchst - now we are in the final stages of production before the modules begin their journey to supply future mobility with sustainable e-fuels. Here's a look behind the doors of our production site in Karlsruhe: 

We are making sustainable, CO2-neutral synthetic fuels and products available for everyone. Our pioneering project takes us a giant step forward on this path!

Construction start in Frankfurt - we get the ball rolling!   

Following the successful groundbreaking event in spring, we have hit a significant milestone on our quest to build the world's first commercial PtX plant, initiating construction work at the Industrial Park Frankfurt Höchst. This marks a significant and most importantly visible step towards our goal of Fueling Future Mobility and shaping a sustainable future. We want to share this development with you regularly. Follow us on Twitter and LinkedIn to stay informed!
Starting in 2024, the first-ever commercial production plant in Industriepark Höchst will recycle up to 8,000 metric tons of CO2 annually - approximately the same amount that 750,000 trees store each year. This can be used to produce up to 3.5 million liters (2,500 metric tons) of synthetic fuel.

This will make our plant the largest power-to-liquid plant in the world. But that's not the only thing that makes this project so special. It is also the fact that it is the first plant that INERATEC is building and also operating itself. To accompany this exciting journey, we will share an insight into the current status of the project every week and provide a lot more information about the project.

We start with the video of the groundbreaking ceremony, which we held together with Tarek Al-Wazir, Hesse's Minister of Economics, and Joachim Kreysing, Managing Director of Infraserv GmbH & Co. Höchst KG.
