Its role Owner
HIF Asia Pacific Pty Ltd is an Australian private company headquartered in North Sydney, New South Wales, and a wholly owned subsidiary of HIF Global, the world’s leading e-fuels developer.
Incorporated in 2020, the company serves as the project proponent and developer for HIF Global’s initiatives in the Asia-Pacific region, with its primary focus on advancing Australia’s first commercial-scale e-fuels production facility in Tasmania.
The company’s main activities include project design, environmental permitting, financing, and construction oversight for facilities that produce carbon-neutral synthetic fuels. These e-fuels are manufactured by combining green hydrogen—generated through electrolysis powered by renewable electricity—with biogenic carbon dioxide sourced from sustainable forestry biomass residues via methanol synthesis.
Key products include e-methanol, which can be used directly or converted into drop-in e-fuels such as sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and e-gasoline for use in existing engines across road transport, aviation, and marine sectors without modifications.
Operating as part of HIF Global’s international portfolio—which encompasses operational plants in Chile and developing projects in the United States, Uruguay, and Brazil—HIF Asia Pacific supports the parent company’s ambition to scale e-fuels production globally, contributing to CO2 emission reductions and the decarbonization of hard-to-abate transport industries.
