• Core idea: Liquid carrier for renewable energy using recycled CO₂
• Process: One-step catalytic reaction of CO₂and Hydrogen to produce Methanol
• Scalable solution - applicable to diverse industries and locations
• No fossil fuel inputs, no arable land needed, no harm to the environment
• Net reduction of GHG’s by 90+% compared to fossil fuels
Enabling a circular economy
