Top Green Methanol Companies

Global Green Methanol Market size was valued at USD 2.55 Billion in 2024 and is poised to grow from USD 3.35 Billion in 2025 to USD 30 Billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 31.5% during the forecast period (2026–2033).

​ The global green methanol market is under dynamic competition, and governments are at the forefront in driving the trend. In Europe, the European Union's Horizon Europe and Green Deal program are driving investments in green methanol technology. For instance, Spain's Ecoplanta Molecular Solutions project, which is funded by the European Commission's Innovation Fund, will produce 240,000 metric tons of methanol per year by 2026 from non-recyclable waste with considerable reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. In Asia, China's aggressive promotion policies such as coercive blending of methanol in gasoline and massive investment in CO₂-to-methanol units are indicative of its plans for green methanol. An example of this project includes the Henan Shunli CO₂-to-Methanol Plant, with a capacity of 110,000 metric tons per year. In North America, companies like Texas-based Celanese are using CO₂ to manufacture methanol, with U.S. carbon capture technology subsidies helping. Latin America is working on green methanol with partnerships such as Porsche-Siemens Energy to manufacture synthetic fuels from wind power and CO₂, to the tune of 550 million liters by 2026.​ 'Carbon Recycling International (CRI) (Iceland)', 'eFuels Nordic (Sweden)', 'Nordic Green AS (Norway)', 'Electrochaea GmbH (Germany)', 'ENGIE (France)', 'Orsted (Denmark)', 'Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) (Denmark)', 'European Energy (Denmark)', 'Lhyfe (France)', 'Storegga (United Kingdom)', 'Proman (Switzerland)', 'OCI Global (Netherlands)', 'LanzaTech) (USA)', 'Topsoe (Denmark)', 'Siemens Energy (Germany)', 'Mitsubishi Corporation (Japan)', 'Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL) (Japan)', 'A.P. Moller - Maersk (Denmark)'

The world governments are turning sustainability as a focal area, hence escalating the adoption of green methanol. The EU Green Deal, U.S. Renewable Fuel Standard, and carbon prices raise green technology investment with methanol being an economically sound alternative energy option in shipping, transport, and the chemicals industry.

The Asia-Pacific (APAC) region is at present the world's most influential green methanol market, fuelled by behemoth government-funded investments and policy support. APAC accounted for around USD 638.4 million of revenue from green methanol in 2023 and is expected to jump to around USD 6.6 billion by 2032. China alone is set to contribute more than 90% of consumption and production of the region by 2025, fueled by behemoth capacity growth programs and supportive market scenarios.
