Maersk to buy 730,000 tonnes/year green methanol from 6 companies
Danish carrier A.P.Moller-Maersk (Maersk), to boost the global production capacity of green methanol, has signed strategic partnerships with six companies to source at least 730,000 tonnes/year by the end of 2025. The six companies are CIMC ENRIC, European Energy, Green Technology Bank, Orsted, Proman, and WasteFuel.
"To transition towards decarbonisation, we need a significant and timely acceleration in the production of green fuels," says Henriette Hallberg Thygesen, CEO, Fleet & Strategic Brands, Maersk. "Green methanol is the only market-ready and scalable available solution today for shipping. Production must be increased through collaboration across the ecosystem and around the world. That is why these partnerships mark an important milestone to get the transition to green energy underway."
