Significant Acquisition Highlight in the Green Methanol Market
In June 2025, Methanex Corporation, headquartered in Canada and a global leader in methanol production and supply, completed the acquisition of OCI Global's international methanol business for $2.05 billion. This strategic purchase aims to substantially increase Methanex's production capacity while incorporating low-carbon assets to diversify its offerings and bolster its market position. OCI Global N.V., based in the Netherlands, produces and distributes green methanol through its OCI HyFuels brand, which serves as a low-carbon fuel primarily for the shipping sector and other industries.

Emerging Trends and Technological Innovations Shaping the Green Methanol Industry
Companies in the green methanol sector are emphasizing technological breakthroughs like dual-carbon conversion technology to enhance production efficiency and reduce costs. This method improves methanol synthesis by using both carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide feedstocks simultaneously, leading to better carbon utilization and lower energy consumption.
For example, in April 2024, Shanghai Electric Group Co. Ltd., a Chinese power equipment manufacturer, announced its Taonan green methanol project. This initiative features a modular electrolysis unit, a catalytic loop converting CO2 to methanol, and a logistics interface designed for ship bunkering. The design shortens installation time, increases yield efficiency, and supports direct maritime fuel applications, thereby streamlining production and supply chain integration. While these innovations foster quicker deployment and cost savings, challenges remain such as high initial capital expenditures and unpredictable demand contracts.
