SPOTLIGHT Sunlight production of chemical fuels

PROJECT

The goal of converting feedstocks into clean alternative fuels

PARTNERS

An international consortium of 12 partners lead by TNO Innovation for life

FUNDING

Provides input to the European research framework programme Horizon 2020

FACING THE CHALLENGES

The sun is a valuable source of energy. It allows converting feedstocks such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and water into clean alternative fuels. These fuels are equivalent in terms of functionality to the fossil fuels, and thus they can fully replace them cutting the greenhouse gas emissions (in particular CO2).

WHY SPOTLIGHT?

The project develops and validates a photonic device and chemical process concept for the sunlight-powered conversion of the unwanted greenhouse gas CO2 and green H2 to the chemical fuel CH4, and to CO as starting material for production of the chemical fuel CH3OH.
