Canada backs nuclear-powered hydrogen-based e-fuel projects

Canada has granted CAD $4.9m ($3.6m) to finance the development of two nuclear-powered hydrogen-based e-fuel projects.

Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) awarded the funding to Nuclear Laboratories (CNL), Expander Energy, Nuclear Promise X, St. Marys Cement and FuelCell Energy (FCE) who are looking to produce e-fuels for use in Canada’s transport sector.

Planning to produce low-carbon synthetic diesel and sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) using hydrogen produced from FCE’s solid oxide electrolysers (SOEC) powered by nuclear power, the projects will look to use direct air capture (DAC) and industrial carbon capture for the supply of carbon dioxide (CO2).
