Royal Dutch Shell PLC is developing sugar biofuels suitable for standard car engines with fuel-technology company Virent Energy Systems Inc., in a move to bring new energy sources closer to mass consumption.
Shell said it started a five-year joint research-and-development effort with the Madison, Wis., company to convert plant sugars directly into gasoline and gasoline-blend components, rather than ethanol.
The development of biofuels has been hindered by the need for special fuel-distribution infrastructure and vehicle engines. Financial terms of the deal weren’t disclosed.
Separately, Shell said the U.S. Department of Justice and Securities and Exchange Commission are examining corruption allegations in Shell’s use of a freight forwarding company. Shell said it was contacted in July by the DOJ regarding its use of a unit of Panalpina World Transport Ltd., a shipping and logistics-management company based in Switzerland.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
