Green e-methanol represents a major commitment by the company to a new product. <em>premium<\/em> of decarbonization, due to its versatility and sustainability, in the form of fuel for maritime transport, as an intermediate product for the production of SAF -the renewable aviation fuel- or in its historical use as a chemical product and raw material for hundreds of everyday products.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reolum&#039;s projects also present a series of differentiating characteristics compared to others currently on the market for the following reasons: integration of biogenic CO\u2082 into e-methanol production, either within the same industrial complex or directly connected to it; production of top-quality green e-methanol with a minimal carbon footprint, potentially even achieving a negative footprint at the source; and a financial structure through <em>Project Finance<\/em>, This allows medium-sized companies, and not just large corporations, to access highly capital-intensive hydrogen projects.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, all the projects bring significant social value to the regions where they are implemented, making use of underutilized rural resources and prioritizing Just Transition Zones, which need support to adapt to new energy paradigms.
