Liquid Wind announced that it has received an environmental permit for its large-scale eFuel production facility in Umeå, Sweden.
The facility is developed by Liquid Wind and will be one of the largest industrial investments to date in Umeå, expected to be ready for production in 2027.
The Land and Environmental Court in Umeå has approved the eFuel facility that will be connected to Umeå Energi’s cogeneration plant Dåvaverket.
As stated, the facility can capture 230,000 tons of carbon dioxide and produce up to 130,000 tons of eMethanol annually.
The received permit marks a significant milestone in our journey and ambition to reduce dependency on fossil fuels in the hard-to-abate sectors such as shipping and aviation.
…said Claes Fredriksson, CEO and founder, Liquid Wind.
