La Robla New Energy
La Robla NE is the largest green e-methanol plant in Europe, an essential product for decarbonizing the transport and chemical industry sectors.
At their facilities, the CO₂ extracted from the biomass plant is mixed with green hydrogen produced by water electrolysis using renewable electricity to produce green e-methanol, a next-generation product.
Methanol and green e-methanol
Methanol (CH₃OH), also known as methyl alcohol, is the simplest of the alcohols. It is a colorless liquid and in high demand due to its many industrial applications.
- Solvent
- Antifreeze
- Paintings
- Use in construction materials
- Textile industry use
- Chemical and pharmaceutical industry
- Fuel production
For his part, green e-methanol It is that which is produced using hydrogen from water electrolysis in a plant powered by renewable electricity and biogenic CO2.
An accelerator of the energy transition
Green e-methanol is an essential product for decarbonizing two sectors that are struggling to reduce emissions from their operations:
Heavy transport
The expansion of green e-methanol as an alternative fuel to those of fossil origin would contribute to the decarbonization of heavy transportation by having a neutral carbon footprint.
Chemical industry
Green e-methanol will also be a key element in the decarbonization of the chemical and pharmaceutical industry since it can be used as a raw material.
