As disclosed, the renewable energy company will establish a new Danish facility to produce approximately 10,000 tonnes of e-methanol that Maersk’s carbon-neutral vessel will consume annually.
The methanol facility will use renewable energy and biogenic CO2 to produce e-methanol. On the other hand, the energy needed for power-to-methanol production will be provided by a solar farm in Kassø, Southern Denmark.
The partners have yet to decide where in Denmark the facility will be located, while the fuel production is expected to start in 2023.
