Global Energy Group and Proman. GEG is also the owner of the Nigg Oil Terminal and Proman is the second largest methanol producer in the world, deploying a fully integrated approach to the entire value chain from project development and production to marketing, logistics and shipping.
|
Technology Brief |
Green methanol is a renewable, liquid, product that is used as a transportation fuel or as a feedstock in the chemical industry. It is produced from recycled carbon dioxide and hydrogen produced from renewable electricity using proven technologies such as electrolysis.
|
Additional Information |
The Cromarty Clean Fuels Project team is now assessing the commercial, technical and financial viability of a renewable power to methanol production and export facility with the ability to store onshore at Nigg and load methanol to be exported on bulk carrier vessels using the repurposed Nigg Jetty. The feasibility study is investigating how project feasibility changes with scale, to determine optimal scale for the project.
