As one of the leading companies in the production of 100% fossil-free fuel, P1 Fuels has been making huge progress in the automotive and racing sectors since its creation in 2018. They have established themselves as the exclusive fuel supplier for the FIA World Championships and numerous other international racing events, including classic car races. Their fuel is all about significantly reducing CO2 emissions in the mobility sector, which accounts for 21% of global CO2 emissions.
P1 Fuels offers a range of environmentally friendly fuels that meet the EN 228 standard, making them road-legal in the European Union and the UK. They are also certified by the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA).
Their signature fuel, P1 Eco 100 Pro, achieves an impressive 77.4% reduction in well-to-wheel CO2 emissions compared to traditional fossil fuels. Additionally, it has been shown to emit lower levels of NOx, HC, and particulate matter, helping companies meet their Scope 3 emissions targets and achieve their sustainability goals. P1 Fuels have demonstrated their fuel’s performance in various racing series worldwide, proving its quality and reliability in the most demanding environments. Importantly, P1 fuels can be used in all spark-ignition engines without requiring any modifications to existing refuelling infrastructures.
As production scales up, P1 Fuels aims to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 94% compared to conventional fossil fuels, presenting a viable solution for decarbonising the mobility sector today.
P1 Fuels was founded by Martin Popilka, an avid motorsport enthusiast and former racer. His firsthand experience in the racing industry revealed a significant challenge: the sector’s substantial contribution to global CO2 emissions. Driven by his passion for racing and a commitment to environmental sustainability, Popilka established P1 Fuels. His goal was to support the motorsport industry and the broader transportation sector in transitioning to greener, more sustainable solutions, in alignment with the Paris climate goals.
With approximately 1.3 billion fossil-fuel-powered cars currently on the road, P1 Fuels offers an immediate, fossil-free alternative that is compatible with any petrol engine and requires no technical modifications. This makes it an attractive, sustainable option for reducing the carbon footprint of existing vehicles.
P1 Fuels is actively partnering with fleet companies to reduce CO2 emissions in daily transportation. Their product portfolio includes storage and mobile refuelling solutions, as well as first-fill fuels for car manufacturers (OEMs). A significant jump forward for P1 Fuels is the launch of a demonstration plant in Germany in 2024, followed by the construction of an industrial-scale plant expected to commence in 2025, with a target operational date of 2029. This will facilitate their entry into the mass market, making fossil-free fuels more accessible and widespread.
