The global green methanol market is on a rapid growth trajectory, projected to soar from $122.35 million in 2021 to a staggering $3,149.05 million by 2031, driven by a remarkable CAGR of 39.63%. Green methanol, produced from renewable sources like biomass, biogas, municipal waste, CO2, and green hydrogen, is becoming a key player in sustainable energy. Known as bio-methanol when derived from biomass and e-methanol when produced from CO2 and renewable electricity, this eco-friendly fuel is gaining significant traction, particularly in the maritime industry. 

Early pioneers such as CRI, OCI N.V., and Chemrec AB have led the charge in green methanol production. Carbon Recycling International (CRI) was the first to achieve commercial-scale e-methanol production in 2012 with its Vulcanol brand, while OCI N.V. launched bio-methanol production in 2010. The industry's rapid expansion is fueled by the maritime sector's need for cleaner fuel alternatives and increasing government support for biofuels. 

Despite facing challenges due to COVID-19 disruptions, including delayed manufacturing and supply chain issues, the industry continues to push forward. Companies are securing long-term contracts to ensure a steady supply of green methanol. The future of the market is bright, with rising global demand and maritime industry innovations driving growth. 

As the world shifts toward greener energy solutions, green methanol is set to play a crucial role in reducing carbon emissions and transforming the global fuel landscape.
