Liquid Wind AB was a Swedish developer of eFuel production facilities, specializing in standardized, modular plants for manufacturing eMethanol from green hydrogen produced via electrolysis and biogenic CO₂ captured from industrial sources.
Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Göteborg, Sweden, the company focused on enabling the transition to fossil-free fuels for hard-to-abate sectors such as shipping, aviation, land transport, and the chemical industry by reusing carbon emissions in a circular manner.
It maintained a pipeline of projects across the Nordics, including sites in Örnsköldsvik, Sundsvall, Umeå, and Östersund in Sweden, as well as locations in Finland and Denmark, often in partnership with local energy companies and international technology providers.
Key collaborators and investors included Ørsted, Uniper, Siemens Energy, Alfa Laval, Topsoe, Carbon Clean, Elyse Energy, HyCap, and Samsung Ventures. The company operated as the parent of a group with subsidiaries in Sweden, Denmark, and Finland, and was part of a broader structure under Freethem Generation AB.
In May 2026, Liquid Wind AB was declared bankrupt by the Göteborg District Court following its own application; the business, including subsidiaries, was placed up for sale under the administration of a bankruptcy trustee, with proceedings ongoing as of September 2026.
Also known as Liquid Wind Group.
