In the Netherlands, Offshore Energy reported that Singapore-based Keppel Corporation, through its Infrastructure Division, and AM Green have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to jointly explore opportunities to produce biogenic carbon-based sustainable fuels, such as bio and green methanol, second-generation (2G) ethanol and sustainable aviation fuel. Specifically, the two parties will jointly identify, evaluate and co-develop projects in Southeast Asia and the Middle East. In addition, Keppel said that the two companies will identify areas for collaboration in the value chain of a bio-methanol project in India, which aims to produce 500,000 tons of bio-methanol annually. Cindy Lim, CEO of Keppel’s Infrastructure Division, said: “Biofuels have an important role to play in decarbonizing industrial operations and the aviation sector… This partnership aims to spur the development of next-generation biofuels and sustainable aviation fuel in the region, which can serve as substitutes for fossil fuels.”
