eFuel Design & Performance Centre
Accelerating eFuel innovation and production
The eFuel Design & Performance Centre (DPC) is dedicated to driving technological progress, strengthen production capacity and bringing sustainable eFuels to market at scale.
In partnership with leading decarbonization companies Alfa Laval, Carbon Clean, Siemens Energy and Topsoe, Liquid Wind has established a joint Research and Development (R&D) department in Hørsholm, Denmark where we collaborate and innovate to accelerate the deployment of eFuel plants.
For eFuels, such as eMethanol, to become a competitive sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, we need scalable, standardized, and optimized production facilities. By leveraging each partners’ cutting-edge technology, modular solutions and ever-refining expertise, the DPC will deliver cost-effective, ready-to-build plants which are quicker to fabricate, transport, construct and commission.
