ETFuels has partnered with John Cockerill and Johnson Matthey to develop a 120,000 tonnes per year e-methanol project in Texas. John Cockerill will contribute 210MW of alkaline electrolyser units for green hydrogen production, while JM will supply e-methanol technology and synthesis catalyst. The project, expected to be operational by 2029, will leverage 500MW renewable energy resources and biogenic CO2 at the 22,000-acre plant. ETFuels aims to avoid approximately 200,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually through this initiative. The project's final investment decision is set for 2026, and construction is planned to commence before 2027, requiring a total investment exceeding a billion dollars. ETFuels CEO Lara Naqushbandi highlighted the business case for scalable and low-cost ultra-low emission fuels in response to regulatory pressures and increasing demands for sustainable supply chain practices. John Cockerill's Nicolas de Coignac emphasized the scalability of ETFuels' model in accelerating towards large-scale green hydrogen projects. The partnership aligns with the global push for decarbonization and offers economic and reputational benefits to early adopters. The project's environmental impact is substantial, equivalent to planting a forest the size of 13,000 football fields. This collaboration underscores the significance of green fuels in meeting stringent regulations and fostering sustainable practices in the energy sector.
