In the UK, DNV is launching the industry’s first public tender portal for e-methanol procurement within the European Union and the United Kingdom. The initiative connects a leading e-methanol producer with industrial offtakers across EU and UK markets, creating a new pathway to secure long-term, reliable supplies of this key low-carbon fuel.
The tender process consists of two stages:
· A non-binding qualification phase to identify a shortlist of serious potential offtakers.
· A second phase of direct negotiations between the shortlisted parties and the producer.
· This structured approach enhances confidence for all participants and supports the establishment of e-methanol as a bankable commodity. The product offered will be fully compliant with RED III and the Delegated Acts governing RFNBO certification, with certification in place from project start. Production will take place in, with flexible delivery options to offtakers across the EU and UK with an expected start of delivery date in H2 2028.
