Uniper has forged a team with two companies to establish green methanol as a sustainable and carbon-neutral marine fuel.
The German energy company has partnered with shipping service provider Liberty Pier Maritime Projects and compatriot engineering firm SDC Ship Design & Consult on the project.
Uniper said the three companies have set up an "open collaboration" — the Green Methanol Cooperation (GMC) — that will develop the infrastructure and logistics needed to supply methanol in Europe and establish shipping requirements.
