Establishing a green river transport fleet: LCA and prospective modeling at the heart of the FLUENT study

Based on IFPEN’s expertise (via its IFPEN Transports Energie Carnot Institute) in the field of Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) and prospective modeling,  the FLUENT (FLUvial ENergie Transition, or river energy transition) study evaluated the global and multidimensional consequences of establishing a green river fleet with a view to guiding the drawing up of the French national roadmap.

Biofuels and e-fuels: renewable fuels of the future
How can more environmentally-friendly fuels be produced for cars, trucks, planes and boats? The answer lies in advanced biofuels and e-fuels! Produced from plant residues, organic waste, renewable electricity associated with CO 2 molecules captured in the atmosphere or in industrial waste, renewable and low-carbon fuels are essential levers when

Renewable energies
The energy transition and tackling climate change depend on the development of new renewable resources. IFPEN proposes processes for the production of fuels, bases for the chemicals sector and gas from biomass. IFPEN also uses its expertise acquired in the field of oil and gas to offer solutions for the
