“At BorgWarner, we are working daily to decrease our carbon footprint and we commend this team for creating a fuel that is 100% renewable, eco-friendly and delivers the same performance and durability as the fuels it’s replacing.” “It’s an honor to be a part of the Louis Schwitzer Award selection committee and have the chance to take a deep dive into the engineering teams that bring NTT INDYCAR SERIES innovations to life,” said James Wood, Chief Engineer at BorgWarner’s Noblesville, Indiana facility.
Shell developed this fuel as a drop-in replacement with identical performance and durability. The fuel enables at least 60% greenhouse gas emissions reduction compared to fossil-based gasoline. The ethanol is derived from sugarcane waste and is blended with another waste-based renewable component to create race fuel that meets the demanding needs of INDYCAR engines. The new Shell Race Fuel is 100% renewable, utilizing second generation ethanol combined with a proprietary blend of non-fossil fuel. In addition to the award, BorgWarner and the Indiana Section of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) International presented Gunsel, Kheireddin and Fang with a $10,000 prize which will be donated to a charitable organization.
