The explosion in EV uptake has created huge opportunities for innovations in the vehicle electrified powertrain, and the unprecedented rapid design of completely new lubricating fluids to allow the electrified powertrains to operate at their utmost efficiency. At the heart of the e-powertrain is the electric motor. Increasingly this is intentionally soaked with the lubricating fluid, which must directly cool and protect this vital component of the vehicle drive.

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.

In recent years, there has been a growing concern about the impact of human activity on the environment, and the need to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels in order to combat climate change. This led to the now well-known Paris Agreement of 2015, in which the countries of the UN agreed on reaching the goal of net zero emissions by 2050. There are many different ways to reach this goal and countries around the world each have their own way to do it.
