WASHINGTON, DC, USA, October 26, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Methanol Institute (MI) is pleased to welcome Oberon Fuels as our newest member. California-based Oberon Fuels is on a mission to decarbonize the fuel and energy sectors through the commercialization of low-carbon fuels. The company’s proprietary process converts organic wastes into renewable methanol, DME and hydrogen to meet market demands. — Greg Dolan, CEO Methanol Institute
Oberon is able to produce IMPCA-grade and ISCC-certified green methanol from low- and carbon-negative feedstocks to help reduce carbon intensity to achieve net-zero and emissions reduction goals. Oberon's process can also create new value for methanol by producing renewable DME and hydrogen from methanol feedstocks.
MI CEO Greg Dolan noted that "We are very pleased to welcome Oberon Fuels to MI. Oberon is a pioneer in renewable DME, and their focus on green methanol as well is an exciting development for the methanol industry."
“The methanol industry is facing substantial new demand for renewable methanol as companies involved in shipping and other logistics face mandatory or voluntary targets for emissions reductions,” said Cinch Munson, Vice President of Business Development at Oberon Fuels. “We look forward to partnering with fellow members of the Methanol Institute to expand the use of renewable methanol to drive sustainability across the maritime and other transport sectors.”
