Welcome to Futuria Fuels. We’re ‘all in’ on sustainable fuels for off-grid.
About us
Futuria Fuels sees a sustainable future for the liquid fuels industry. Through collaboration with academics, industry and technology providers, we have already started building it. The greatest challenge for off-grid fuel supply is finding viable sustainable fuel alternatives - for a wide range of existing applications. A business unit of SHV Energy, Futuria Fuels is innovating on-purpose production of sustainable fuels pathways, predominantly in the form of renewable liquid gas. SHV Energy has been safely delivering energy to customers across the world for over 125 years. We pioneered the introduction of bioLPG to the market in 2018. SHV Energy focuses on the off-grid market. It is critical that we develop sustainable alternatives in this sector if we are to achieve global sustainability and net-zero targets. Futuria Fuels was founded by SHV Energy to lead the global advocacy of sustainable molecules, aiming to deliver viable sustainable fuel to off-grid customers. Through collaboration, we are building partnership and investment opportunities which will directly result in the defossilisation of liquid gas for customers and suppliers. Futuria Fuels is bringing together the brightest minds in the LPG industry, academia, and technology providers to change off-grid fuels. We are developing on-purpose processes to produce: - bioLPG - rDME - eLPG and rLPG - H2 These technologies are leading the off-grid sector to a sustainable future, where fuels are created from a wide range of feedstocks.

Futuria Fuels are showcasing sustainable fuels developments during #LPGweek Reliable and safe access to cleaner off-grid energy is essential for improving the quality of life for citizens all over the world. Compared to cooking with solid fuels like wood and charcoal, LPG is a safe, reliable and cleaner option. Sustainable fuels, such as bioLPG and rDME, take this even further. Futuria Fuels are collaborating across industry and academia, Advancing Energy Together to decarbonise liquid gas for our customers. One recent breakthrough collaboration is with UK-based technology company, HiiROC. Together, we have validated a pathway to produce clean hydrogen from LPG or sustainable bioLPG. In addition to producing affordable and clean hydrogen, the process produces solid carbon. This valuable byproduct has many useful applications, such as increasing the durability of tyres and enhancing the performance of road surfacing. HiiROC CEO, Tim Davies, says, "HiiROC is delighted to be working with Futuria Fuels, proving that LPG can be an effective and affordable carrier of low-carbon hydrogen for off-grid energy applications – produced at the point of use and avoiding the need for expensive and complex hydrogen transport and storage." #LPGweek #sustainablefuels #collaboration #HiiROC

Futuria Fuels continues to lead, on behalf of SHV Energy, the assessment of potential projects and investments for the development of on-purpose production of sustainable molecules, such as rLG and rDME. We very much welcome today's announcement on the collaboration with DCC plc and look forward to Advancing Energy Together. #sustainablemolecules #rLG #rDME #collaboration
SHV Energy is excited to share that we will be collaborating with DCC Energy (DCC plc) to stimulate the production of renewable liquid gas (rLG) and renewable and recycled carbon dimethyl ether (rDME). Like us, Ireland-based DCC Energy is a global leader in the liquid gas industry. By joining forces, we will be better able to identify the best solutions to address supply challenges in Europe. That will open the door to the production of #rLG and #rDME at scale and help us realise our shared goal of securing widespread commercial adoption. Our first step together will be to identify the projects and investments that have the best potential to lead to sustainable supply solutions. We’ll also involve other industry stakeholders to help drive #productioninnovation. Read more by clicking the link in the comments below. #rDME #renewableliquidgas #collaboration

The theme of last week's Liquid Gas UK annual conference was about renewable liquid gases for the future and how they will support homes & businesses in the UK. It was, therefore, a great moment to talk about the role of bioLPG and other sustainable molecules, such as rDME. Futuria Fuels remains dedicated to delivering both bioLPG and rDME molecules to the UK in 2025, whilst continuing to build partnerships for the development of 'on-purpose' production processes. #LGUKCardiff24 #bioLPG #rDME #sustainablemolecules #rural

Last week, Futuria Fuels attended several engaging sessions during a visit to Brazil. It was a great moment to join the World Biogas Association and witness the major accelerated growth of biogas already happening across Brazil. This growth in biogas availability and continued development gives opportunity for large volumes of feedstock to enable the on-purpose production for off-grid sustainable molecules, such as bioLPG. As members of Clean Energy Ministerial Biofuture Campaign, Futuria Fuels also participated in numerous side-events and roundtable discussions to facilitate dialogue on the subjects of carbon accounting, bioresources availability and future fuels deployment. The output of such discussions helps to develop the industry recommendations to energy ministers and beyond for collective action and global ambitions on sustainable fuels.

Congratulations to all our colleagues at GASPOL on reaching a great milestone and becoming the latest SHV Energy business to introduce bioLPG to both existing and future customers. SHV Energy, pioneered the introduction of bioLPG in 2018. Since then, it has proven to be an effective, sustainable alternative. By comparison to LPG sourced from fossil fuels, bioLPG results in around 80% less CO2. To enable the continued growth and availability of sustainable molecules, such as bioLPG, Futuria Fuels are working with partners to develop processes for on-purpose production, utilising locally available feedstocks. #bioLPG #sustainablemolecules
🎉 W naszym terminalu w Gdańsku historyczny moment! 🎉 🚆Odebraliśmy pierwszą dostawę bio LPG dla GASPOL S.A.! Ponad rok pracy zespołu realizującego to zadanie przyniósł efekt w postaci wprowadzania na polski rynek nowego produktu, poszerzającego ofertę w kierunku odnawialnych i niskoemisyjnych paliw. 💧🍀 Bio LPG jest ważnym krokiem na drodze do zrównoważonego rozwoju w oparciu wielość paliw i technologii, w tym o odnawialne gazy płynne. Udowadniamy, że transformacja energetyczna nie musi być jednowymiarowa i możemy być jej świadkami w Polsce, również w branży gazu płynnego. 🙌 Dziękujemy wszystkim, którzy przyczynili się do tego sukcesu! To dopiero początek zmian, które będą napędzać naszą przyszłość. #BioLPG #BioPropan #Biopaliwo #ZrównoważonyRozwój #Sustainbility Futuria Fuels SHV Energy

Excellent week in Chicago tcbiomass, The International Conference on Thermochemical Conversion Science. Futuria Fuels were delighted to share expertise and opportunities for the on-purpose production of bioLPG, using a wide range of sustainable feedstocks. A highlight being the route of converting bioethanol into bioLPG, whilst also sharing the challenges to be expected on the journey to achieving a pilot plant. Our collaboration GTI Energy and Drochaid Research Services has seen this promising pathway continue to progress. This week emphasises our continued commitment to developing sustainable pathways for on-purpose production, at volume affordably. #sustainablefuels #collaboration #bioLPG
