Light Ray Ventures is pleased toannounce its participation in XFuel's latest funding round alongsideco-investor SOSV.
XFuel, led by CEO Dr. Nicholas Ball, has developed proprietary technology thatconverts waste biomass into drop-in transport fuels for marine, shipping, road,and aviation sectors—industries responsible for 37% of global CO₂ emissions.
The company's fuels meet existing fossil fuel specifications, requiring noengine modifications or new infrastructure.
The Dublin-based company has raised $21.4M to date and is now generating revenue, with signed agreements from leading container lines and maritime operators.

"When you can produce sustainable fuel at a price point comparable to fossil fuels, you have a business that doesn't need policy support to survive. That's the only way to build truly sustainable sustainability."
XFuel produces sustainable and net-zero road, marine and aviation drop-in fuels. The company vision is to become the sustainable fuel company for the future, providing low-carbon and clean fuel to distributors and consumers around the globe in industries such as maritime, aviation, HGVs and consumer cars.
