"Hi I am Søren, Investment Manager at Invest in Aalborg. I have come out here to this beautiful spot - in the eastern part of Aalborg - to talk a bit about the future.

Right here behind me, Aalborg Forsyning, Reno Nord and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners - will build a 300/400 MW Power-to-X plant - which will produce green methanol from local waste-based CO2."

Annualy, the plant is expected to capture and recycle:


- 180,000 tonnes of waste-based CO2

- Produce 130,000 tonnes of green methanol or SAF (Sustainable Aviation Fuel)

- Produce 130GWh of excess heat. Corresponding to 7 % of the heat consumption in Aalborg Municipality or the heating of 5,000 households.
