Project Overview
Perpetual Next USA plans to construct three new biomethanol production facilities in the southeastern United States, with construction set to begin in 2026. Each facility is designed to process approximately one million tons of sustainably produced biomass annually.
Industry Context
The global demand for biomethanol is projected to rise significantly by 2050, driven by new government policies like the European FuelEU program and industry initiatives aimed at reducing CO2 emissions. This increase in demand necessitates rapid scaling of production capacity.
Biomethanol Blueprint
Perpetual Next is implementing its Biomethanol Blueprint across multiple sites in Europe and the US. This blueprint combines techniques for torrefaction, gasification, and methanol synthesis, facilitating rapid and scalable biomethanol production for the global market.
Partnerships
The company collaborates with American partners, including TSI, a leader in raw material processing, and Fluor, serving as Owner's Engineer, to support the rollout of these facilities.
