KETEP 세계에너지시장정보

Danish renewables developer European Energy A/S has signed a long-term agreement with US company Montauk Renewables Inc (NASDAQ:MNTK) for the delivery of biogenic carbon dioxide (CO2), which is key for the production of e-methanol.

The deal is for the delivery of 140,000 tonnes of biogenic CO2 a year over at least 15 years. Montauk will capture, clean and liquify CO2 at select Texas facilities. The CO2 will then be transported via truck to EE North America's e-methanol facility in Texas. The Danish company recently secured a 50-year lease with the Port of Victoria in Texas for a potential facility for e-methanol, which is made by combining carbon dioxide with green hydrogen. E-methanol can have various uses, like e-fuel in shipping, raw material for green plastics and blend in heavy transport.
