thyssenkrupp Uhde has been selected by Koppö Energia Oy to provide its uhde® green methanol technology for a new e-methanol facility in Kristinestad, Finland. The agreement includes a front-end engineering design contract and aims to produce 450 metric tons per day of e-methanol in multiple grades for the maritime industry and e-gasoline market. This project is part of Koppö Energia's power-to-x initiative, focusing on advancing low-carbon fuel solutions in transportation. The e-methanol will be produced through the direct hydrogenation of CO2, with renewable hydrogen generated from a 200-megawatt water electrolysis plant and CO2 captured from a waste incineration facility in Vaasa. The collaboration between thyssenkrupp Uhde and Koppö Energia highlights the importance of technological expertise in ensuring successful project execution. The project signifies a broader trend towards electrification and sustainable fuels, addressing decarbonization challenges in industries like shipping and aviation. By leveraging renewable energy and CO2 recycling, the initiative supports Finland's climate innovation efforts and contributes to the EU's green energy objectives. thyssenkrupp Uhde's green methanol technology offers high carbon and hydrogen efficiency, enhancing economic viability and revenue potential while minimizing overall carbon intensity through its patented process design.
