Introducing eMethanol A fossil-free liquid eFuel
Electrofuels, also known as eFuels, are synthetic fuels produced from hydrogen (H2) derived from water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2). They can be produced in either gaseous form (example: e-hydrogen or e-methane) or liquid form (example: e-diesel or eMethanol).
What is eMethanol?
eMethanol is a very versatile commodity that can be used as a fuel for vehicles, in fuel cells, for electricity generation, and as a feedstock in the chemical industry.
Since Methanol already has an established infrastructure for production, storage, and distribution, it can also potentially be integrated into existing systems more easily compared to some other electrofuels.
But more importantly: With access to renewable energy from wind, solar or hydropower, and fossil free CO2 captured from biofueled power plants, our facilities can produce green methanol that has a significantly reduced carbon footprint compared to conventional methanol derived from fossil fuels. This considerably contributes to efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change, offering hard-to-abate sectors, like shipping and aviation, a way to reach their sustainability goals.
