Thanks to Chemical & Engineering News [@cenmag] for featuring our new kerosene pathway - the first 100% electrochemical process in history that makes kerosene from air and electricity. And also for highlighting why our DAC is the world’s cheapest at $50 per metric ton of CO2.
The gas chromatograph plot shows our direct electroreduction of atmospheric CO2 to kerosene-range alkanes. Kerosene is the precursor to turbine-based fuels. The biggest peak in our fuel sample is at C15, a.k.a., the “sweet spot” in fuel science for its balance of the physical, chemical, and performance properties that make the best fuel for data center power generation and aviation.
Prometheus kerosene is made from two of the cheapest, most plentiful inputs on the planet - air and electrons from the sun. It’s also 100% carbon neutral and can compete with fossil kerosene on price at any scale of production. It’s a true gamechanger.

Prometheus @PrometheusFuels Announces Breakthrough e-Kerosene Pathway to Make Cost-Competitive SAF and Diesel from Electricity and Air - https://t.co/Rc3aKeZ5iY
Continuing a tradition we started last year of dropping epic good news on Christmas Eve, we’ve got a new process to make SAF at <$2.50 / gal at any scale, without H2 https://t.co/xI4XKlb20k
In his latest Founder’s Note, Prometheus CEO Rob McGinnis reveals for the first time details behind the tech advance that made this possible
How can we claim DAC at <$50/ton of CO2 when the DAC industry is stuck at an average cost of $900/ton?
Gasworld’s Molly Burgess breaks down the tech behind our unique “no-desorb” DAC, and how it drives the world’s first pathway to make fuels from air + electricity that can outcompete oil + gas fuels in commodity markets

How fast can we build out production + start delivering fuel for AI power? Faster than any other new option at scale. Prometheus projects can be running at the GW scale in less than 2 years. Why? We don’t need a grid connection, and we can be sited in remote locations with streamlined permits.
We’re now taking orders. Don’t get hung up on the 5L bottle in the photo. We sell our fuel by the ton: https://t.co/O30CMU0c5c

In a historic first, we just powered AI with fuel made from air + electricity. We’re now taking orders for our AI fuel – steady, high-quality, 24/7, carbon-neutral power generation for data centers – made off-grid at a price that beats grid power. Watch: https://t.co/fGnqoiv2Kd

YC W19's @PrometheusFuels invented and built an integrated DAC and fuel synthesis system that captures carbon from the air, runs on renewable energy, and produces e-Fuels that cost less than fossil at scale.
Their first large commercial project, Project Lodestone, is a 100,000 ton-per-year e-methanol plant.

“We’ve done it. We now have the technology to revolutionize how energy is used and fuel is made. Starting now, we are poised to enter a time of unprecedented prosperity, enabled by an extraordinary energy surplus that drives down the cost of power worldwide,” writes Prometheus founder + CEO, Rob McGinnis

No subsidies, no problem. We’ve got the carbon neutral power you want at the fossil fuel prices you need.
Big news: Our commercial-scale 50-cell Faraday Reactor is complete. We’re ready for commercial rollout.

Orders for our first million tons of fuel – a 99.9% pure, carbon neutral methanol – are sold out. Gasoline, SAF, marine fuel, diesel – our methanol can make them all. But its killer app? Long distance and duration energy storage https://t.co/gUNNeAG9J0
