Ørsted reveals big e-methanol source for Maersk's coming green fleet

Danish utility Ørsted needs to hurry if it’s to deliver 300,000 tonnes of green methanol a year to Maersk’s future fleet of green vessels. Ørsted is to build a factory as well as establish solar and wind energy to run it by the end of 2025, says Ørsted VP.
