Environmental Permit Secured
GIDARA Energy has obtained a crucial environmental permit for its Advanced Methanol Amsterdam (AMA) facility from the province of Noord-Holland. This permit allows the construction of a facility that will convert local waste into advanced methanol, marking a significant step in the company's efforts to decarbonize the industry.
Facility Details
Located in the Port of Amsterdam, the renewable methanol facility will utilize GIDARA Energy's patented HTW® gasification technology. The facility is designed to convert approximately 360,000 tons of waste into 90,000 tons of renewable methanol annually. This methanol can be used in road transport, the maritime sector, and for producing sustainable aviation fuels.
Permit Process
The permit process involved a comprehensive review of the project's environmental impacts, a public consultation, and an evaluation of the design and construction plans to ensure compliance with environmental standards. GIDARA Energy collaborated closely with local authorities and scientific experts to minimize environmental impact and ensure community safety.
Location and Future Plans
The AMA facility will be built at BioPark, a primary development site for renewable fuel producers in the Port of Amsterdam. The project aligns with the port's sustainability goals and supports the global demand for advanced methanol and renewable energy.
