With DG Fuels Technology, the Hydrogen Transportation Future is Here —Today!
Popular
What we do
DG Fuels is an emerging leader in renewable hydrogen and biogenic based, synthetic low emissions aviation and diesel fuel. The DG Fuels’ technology does not require the development of new engines or an expanded hydrogen transportation and storage infrastructure. DG Fuels’ innovative technology produces a renewables-based replacement fuel for the aircraft, locomotives and trucks that are in use today.
Company's story
Our Specialty
Our Technology does not require the development of new engines or expanded hydrogen transportation and storage.
“Conventional petrochemical refineries generally utilize about 85% of the carbon in crude oil feedstock into products. While gas-to-liquids refineries convert about 60% of the carbon in natural gas feedstock into products.
Historically, cellulosic biofuels facilities have typically utilized only about 25% of the carbon in their biomass feedstock into products.
In an important technological step forward, DG Fuels’ synergistic process breaks the carbon utilization barrier and has achieved a utilization efficiency of up to 97%. Increased carbon utilization efficiency of this extent combined with renewable hydrogen in a drop in replacement fuel results in more than 100% lower greenhouse gas emissions on a full life cycle basis.
Additionally, DG Fuels carbonized liquid hydrogen replacement fuel has a net 7% improved energy density than conventional fuels improving payload or range dynamics. In the example of a fully fueled Boeing 747 aircraft, it would have an additional 17,500 lb. payload for the same range.
DG Fuels synergistic system results in jet fuel with a negative CO2 life cycle of 104.2% less (-3.5 gCO2e/MJ) than conventional jet fuel from petroleum which has an average of 94 gCO2e/MJ.

Our story
DG Fuels will initially focus on the production of synthetic jet fuel then later synthetic diesel fuel. The DG Fuels Program will be implemented over 15 years at multiple locations and in multiple phases at each location. The electric power for the manufacturing processes will come largely from renewable solar and wind energy initially to be produced by other entities but later installed directly by DG Fuels. Excess electricity produced may be sold into the commercial power grid.
DG Fuels domestically produced and environmentally responsible low-CO2 emissions fuels will meet ASTM fuel standards and will be price competitive with fuels refined from petroleum. The DG Fuels manufacturing process only uses cellulosic biomass in the form of agricultural waste and renewable power for water electrolysis generated hydrogen and oxygen feedstock. Using these types of raw material will have a positive economic effect on farmers and landowners without a negative effect on consumer food prices.
