Carbon Clean achieves fabrication milestone on FlagshipONE eMethanol facility

In the UK, Carbon Clean said it has achieved a fabrication milestone on Ørsted’s FlagshipONE project, Europe’s largest commercial-scale eMethanol facility under construction. 

The firm noted that the first equipment has been mounted on the structural steel of the first module, marking the start of the module assembly process. Once operational, Carbon Clean’s technology will be capable of capturing 70,000 tons of biogenic CO2 per year for Ørsted’s facility in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden.

FlagshipONE will be Ørsted’s largest commercial-scale Power-to-X facility and Europe’s largest eMethanol plant, and is expected to be operational in 2025. It will supply up to 55,000 tons of eMethanol per year to the shipping industry, which today accounts for around 3% of global carbon emissions, the company added.
