India's Kandla Port Moves Ahead With E-Methanol Plant
The plant, which will have a production capacity of 150 mt/day, is expected to support the research of environmentally friendly fuel infrastructure at the port, the port authority said in a social media post on Saturday.
Earlier this year, Assam Petro-Chemicals Ltd signed an MoU with Deendayal Port Authority to develop the e-methanol plant at Kandla Port. Targets shipping demand
E-methanol is produced using environmentally friendly hydrogen and captured carbon dioxide powered by renewable electricity and is increasingly viewed as a viable alternative fuel to shipping.
The port also conducted India’s first methanol bunkering demonstration in April, as it looks to build infrastructure to alternative marine fuels.
