Investor Presentation March 2024
Price response required
to incentivize new
low-carbon methanol
production
We expect government policies and
regulations to lead to increased investment
and demand for low and zero carbon
methanol. Greater production of lower or
zero carbon methanol can be incentivized
through various means including customers'
willingness to pay a higher price and new
technology that reduce production costs.
The cost for lower emission methanol is
expected to decrease as technologies mature
and become scalable.
