On this website we will explore different use cases for methanol as a fuel or energy carrier.
Transportation Fuel: Methanol is used as a fuel in internal combustion engines, either directly or as a component in blended fuels. It can be used in modified spark-ignition engines and is a component in biodiesel production.
Marine Fuel: Methanol is being increasingly used as a marine fuel, offering a cleaner alternative to traditional marine fuels. Read more about methanol as marine fuel.
Fuel Cells: Methanol is used in direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs), which are a type of proton-exchange fuel cell, offering a portable and clean power source.
Electricity Generation: Methanol can be converted into dimethyl ether (DME), which can then be used in power generation as a cleaner alternative to diesel.
