Overview

Master Thesis Opportunity at HIF Global

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of eFuel Production Plants

At HIF Global, we make possible the impossible: turning air, water, and renewable energy into carbon-neutral fuels that will decarbonize the world’s most challenging sectors. As pioneers of e-Fuels, we are committed to building a cleaner and more sustainable future—today.

We are offering a Master Thesis project for students passionate about sustainability, renewable energy, and the science behind global transformation. This project will focus on performing a comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of e-Fuel production plants currently under development at HIF.

Scope of the Thesis

As global demand for sustainable fuels accelerates, e-Fuels are becoming a vital solution to decarbonize hard-to-abate sectors such as aviation, shipping and transportation.

Regulatory frameworks, especially in the EU, are setting strict certification standards for renewable fuels of non-biological origin.

What You Will Do

• Conduct life cycle assessments (LCA) of HIF’s eFuel production projects.
• Develop models for different plant configurations (e.g., biomass, direct air capture).
• Analyze regulatory compliance and identify certification challenges.
• Recommend strategies to optimize LCA outcomes for certification and scalability.

Your Profile

We are looking for a motivated student who brings curiosity, analytical rigor, and a passion for sustainability :

• Academic background in Environmental Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or a related field.
• Experience with LCA methodologies and software (advantage).
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Fluent in English (German is a plus, not mandatory).

Why HIF?

At HIF, you’ll be part of a team that is shaping the future of energy. This thesis gives you the chance to :

• Work on real, large-scale projects that will transform global mobility.
• Apply your knowledge to one of the fastest-growing areas of renewable energy.
• Gain exposure to a global, multicultural environment driven by innovation and purpose.
