Porsche efuel production in Texas
We have discussed the Porsche efuel production in Chile . This article stated Porsche and its partners are expanding production facilities . Sites in Australia and Texas will be built . I think this is great news and will help expand capability . Baby steps forward to a possible solution to keep the internal combustion engine alive and viable as a clean energy initiative .

We have to admit the relentless push from the politicians for "clean energy" cars is relentless. It is coming and there is little was can do to slow it down. It does bring some benefits to the daily commuters but so far offers me nothing I want, especially at that price.
I will keep my ICE cars until I am too old to drive safely. Unless the extraterrestrials bring us Star Trek level technology for engines, and I just bolt in a 400 HP magic motor that runs on antimatter and dilithium crystals I can fabricate at home. I ain't gonna hold my breath on that.

There are a couple good videos on Harry's Garage about the different types of eFuels and how they are made, pros/cons etc. He just posted a new one last week.
