Methanol is a cleaner-burning alternative fuel
Representing upside potential for long-term demand
Lower emission
fuel source
Methanol is used as an alternative
to coal for industrial boilers, kilns,
and cooking stoves to reduce
emissions
Currently represents approximately
5 mmt of demand
Vehicle fuel that
reduces emissions
Methanol is an affordable gasoline
substitute in China
Reduces emissions when blended
with or substituted for gasoline
Several other countries are at the
assessment or near-commercial stage
for low-level methanol fuel blending
Marine fuel that meets
environmental regulations
Shipping regulations
(IMO 2020) require
cleaner-burning fuels
Methanol is a cleaner-
burning fuel that
meets regulations and
is cost competitive
over the cycle¹
Approximately 50% of
Waterfront Shipping's
(Methanex's partially
owned subsidiary)
fleet currently can run
on methanol
1. Methanol significantly reduces emissions of SOx by 99 per cent, NOx by 80 per cent, particulate matter (PM) by 95 per cent and CO2
from combustion by 15 per cent on a Tank to Wake basis compared to Tier I vessels running on traditional heavy fuel oil.
