Once operational, NorthStarH2 will synthesize biogenic carbon dioxide and green hydrogen, produced from renewable electricity, into eMethanol – a fossil-free eFuel. Liquid Wind has been selected to develop the project using its unique project methodology, which includes a standardized design and a digital platform that enables efficient replication to replace fossil fuels and feedstock.
Claes Fredriksson, CEO and founder of Liquid Wind, commented: “We are very pleased to be part of Uniper’s NorthStarH2 project. NorthStarH2 shows clearly that Sweden continues to drive the green transition with the help of the country’s renewable sources, and that eFuel will play a crucial role in electrifying numerous sectors such as shipping, aviation and chemical industries. This collaboration project, together with Uniper, represents another step forward for Liquid Wind, highlighting the importance of partnership in combination with cutting-edge technology in the fight against global warming.”
Jan Taschenberger, COO of New Green Power and Gas at Uniper, said: “NorthStarH2 plays a pivotal role in Uniper’s commitment to drive the energy transition. With this innovative project for the production of green methanol, we are breaking new ground with Liquid Wind – both in terms of technology and in the way we collaborate. We believe that only through a new partnership-driven approach can visionary projects like this succeed. Together, we are shaping the future of sustainable energy supply.”
