TotalEnergies announce that for the first time in the endurance event’s history, the 62 race cars competing in the 90th 24 Hours of Le Mans during 11-12 June will be supplied with a 100% renewable fuel developed and produced by TotalEnergies: Excellium Racing 100. This zero-oil fuel will deliver a reduction in CO2 emissions of at least 65% over its lifecycle. More than 18 months of R&D were needed to develop this renewable fuel made from wine residues of grape marcs and lees. Excellium Racing 100 is a full-fledged racing fuel that meets all the requirements of the FIA, car manufacturers, drivers and the European directive on renewable energies. The 24 Hours of Le Mans, the third round of the FIA World Endurance Championship and an iconic motorsports event, will take place for the first time with a 100% renewable fuel. Excellium Racing 100 is a major milestone in the partnership between TotalEnergies and Automobile Club de l'Ouest, which is pursuing an energy transition and environmental strategy that is aligned with TotalEnergies' ambition to get to net zero by 2050, together with society. TotalEnergies is a global multi-energy company that produces and markets energies: oil and biofuels, natural gas and green gases, renewables and electricity.
