European Energy is a Danish renewable energy developer and operator focused on integrating utility-scale wind and solar power with Power-to-X production. The company develops, finances, builds, owns, and operates assets that generate electricity and convert it into green molecules for hard-to-abate sectors.
For the chemical and fuels value chain, European Energy produces green hydrogen via electrolysis and uses biogenic CO2 to synthesize e-methanol and other e-fuels for marine and aviation applications. Its projects can also supply oxygen and process heat as by-products, alongside renewable power and grid services. Active internationally, European Energy works across the full project lifecycle—from site development and permitting to construction and operations—to scale low-carbon feedstocks and fuels that support industrial decarbonization.

MegaMax 900 catalyst successfully starts at Denmark's e-methanol plant, enhancing green methanol production with high stability and activity, supported by Clariant's technical team.
The facility uses renewable energy for hydrogen production, with plans to expand. It supplies Port Esbjerg and local utilities, optimizing energy use and aiding decarbonization efforts.
The facility will produce 12,000 liters of eSAF daily, aiding aviation's climate goals with high-efficiency aerobrew technology, reducing emissions by up to 90% without altering aircraft.
The plant in Denmark will produce 32,000 tons of e-methanol annually, with a significant portion allocated to Maersk. The catalyst ensures high activity and stability in CO2-to-methanol conversion.
Mitsui acquires 49% of MidCo, which produces low-carbon e-methanol from green hydrogen and CO2. Production starts in 2024, with sales agreements in place. Mitsui aims to enhance competitiveness and collaboration.
Aabenraa, Denmark, approves a 300 MW solar farm to power 75,000 homes, cutting CO2 by 110,000 tons annually. Construction starts early 2021, with grid connection by year-end.
By country, the most active first.
