Fuels, chemicals and plastics from thin air
We use CO₂ and renewable energy
to make fuels, chemicals and plastics
Our mission is to give future generations the acknowledged benefits of hydrocarbons but without their climate impact.
The Challenge for our Future Energy
The Challenge for our Future Energy
Fossil fuels provided 83% of the world’s primary energy in 2020. All must come from zero-emissions sources in less than 30 years.
Sectors such as power and ground transport that can use renewable energy directly are rapidly shifting.
But the shift in long distance fuels, chemicals and plastics is just beginning…
These sectors cannot use renewable electricity directly
Long-distance fuels
Where energy density requirements are far beyond batteries
Petrochemical products
Where carbon forms the backbone of household products
Biodegradable plastic
Products which enable the continued use of the material
With limited sustainable biomass, the key is using CO₂

About OXCCU
We share a common vision - delivering a truly Circular Economy for fuels and chemicals.
The company was spun out from the University of Oxford’s Chemistry Department in 2021 and is underpinned by a number of scientific breakthroughs published in top tier scientific journals by Professor Peter Edwards, Dr Tiancun Xiao and Dr Benzhen Yao.
"Every year the demand for truly sustainable fuels and chemicals grows. At OXCCU we’re attracting the world’s leading chemists and chemical engineers to help bring our net- zero products to the world."
