Kopp枚 Energia Oy has selected thyssenkrupp Uhde to provide its proprietary uhde庐 green methanol technology for a new e-methanol facility in Kristinestad, Finland. The agreement includes a front-end engineering design (FEED) contract as part of Kopp枚 Energia鈥檚 broader power-to-x (P2X) initiative.

The planned facility will have a production capacity of 450 metric tons per day of e-methanol in multiple grades. These varying product specifications are designed to serve both the maritime industry and the growing e-gasoline market. The project aims to play a key role in advancing low-carbon fuel solutions in the transportation sector.

鈥渢hyssenkrupp Uhde is proud to contribute to this pioneering project with our proven green methanol technology and implementation expertise,鈥� said Nadja H氓kansson, CEO of thyssenkrupp Uhde. 鈥淭his partnership is a strong example of cross-sector collaboration that supports the transition to sustainable fuels.鈥�

Unlike conventional methanol鈥攃ommonly derived from fossil-based natural gas鈥攇reen methanol, also known as e-methanol, is produced through the direct hydrogenation of carbon dioxide (CO2). In this case, thyssenkrupp Uhde鈥檚 process combines green hydrogen and captured CO2 to generate a low-carbon fuel alternative.

The renewable hydrogen for the project will be produced through a 200-megawatt water electrolysis plant powered by green electricity. The CO2 will be captured from a municipal waste incineration facility in the city of Vaasa, then liquefied and transported by truck to the P2X plant site in Kristinestad.

Thomas Zirngibl, director at Kopp枚 Energia, highlighted the importance of the collaboration: 鈥淲e are very pleased to work with thyssenkrupp Uhde on this ambitious project. Their technological expertise and ability to integrate complex systems will help ensure a successful and timely execution.鈥�

The Kristinestad plant is part of a broader trend toward electrification and sustainable fuels, particularly in industries that are difficult to decarbonize through electrification alone. Green methanol is increasingly viewed as a viable solution to reduce emissions in sectors such as shipping and aviation.

By leveraging renewable energy and CO2 recycling, the project underscores Finland鈥檚 commitment to climate innovation and supports the European Union鈥檚 broader green energy objectives.

The uhde庐 green methanol technology delivers high carbon and hydrogen efficiency, boosting both the project's economic viability and revenue potential. Owing to thyssenkrupp Uhde鈥檚 patented process design, the methanol plants generate minimal purge gas, which plays a key role in significantly lowering the facility鈥檚 overall carbon intensity.

thyssenkrupp Uhde brings together specialized technological expertise and decades of global experience in engineering, procurement, construction, and servicing of chemical plants. The company focuses on developing innovative processes and products that drive sustainability and support the long-term success of its customers across nearly every sector of the chemical industry. Its portfolio features industry-leading technologies for producing base chemicals, fertilizers, and polymers, along with complete value chains for green hydrogen and sustainable chemical solutions.
