In a pivotal move towards sustainable energy solutions, EE North America (EENA) and Montauk Renewables have signed a long-term contract for the delivery of 140,000 tpy of biogenic carbon dioxide (CO₂) over a minimum 15-yr term. Montauk will capture, clean and liquify CO₂ at select Texas facilities, at which point it will be transported via truck to EENA's Texas-based eMethanol facility. There, the CO₂, along with green H₂, will be synthesized to create eMethanol, a versatile substance with applications in shipping as eFuel, as a raw material for sustainable green plastics, and blended in heavy transport.

This strategic partnership holds immense promise, preventing critical amounts of CO₂ from entering the atmosphere. Montauk and EENA’s innovative approach transforms what was once considered a waste product into a commercial feedstock, with sustainably sourced biogenic CO₂ provided by Montauk. Simultaneously, it opens a new revenue stream for Montauk Renewables, illustrating the economic viability of environmentally conscious initiatives.

Lorena Ciciriello, CEO of EENA said, “As we pioneer the clean energy transition, it's imperative to forge alliances that drive real change. Our collaboration with Montauk is more than a transaction; it's a shared commitment to a sustainable future. By harnessing our collective strengths and thinking creatively, we're positioning ourselves as leaders in the clean energy landscape.”
