Geely Auto Group is a leading Chinese car manufacturer which also owns automotive brands Volvo, Lotus and Proton, and is the largest shareholder in Daimler. It has been operating methanol in automotive engines since 2005. Through China’s successful Methanol Vehicle Pilot Program, in Shanxi Province alone methanol vehicles travelled more than 21.4 million kilometers (12.84 million miles) over three years. The firm has also deployed fleets of methanol-fueled taxis all over the country. In 2017 Chinese Vice Premier Liu Yandong noted in a visit to Geely’s Methanol Car manufacturing plant that “methanol automobiles have low operating costs and good emissions.” Acting as a liquid hydrogen carrier for fuel cells is another way that renewable methanol can help lower transport industry emissions. Danish company SerEnergy produces methanol fuel cell range extenders to increase electric cars’ range, allowing them to reach 800 km in total. These also power the MS Innogy (Lake Baldeneysee, Germany) a converted diesel tour boat operating on renewable methanol produced using CO2 from the surrounding air, and green electricity and water. Chinese firm Palcan produces methanol fuel cell electric trucks and delivery vans, and German-Chinese partnership AIWAYS Gumpert has announced the Gumpert RG Nathalie, a methanol fuel cell powered electric supercar with a 1,200 km (745 mile) range and a top speed of 300 km/h (186 mph). In the USA, an early methanol research program tested dedicated methanol vehicles throughout the 1980s, and flexible fuel vehicles in the 1990s. The success of the program and investment in local methanol fuel infrastructure meant that major manufacturers including Ford, GM and Chrysler produced methanol-fueled versions of popular cars priced the same as their gasoline equivalents. By 1997 there were 15,000 methanol vehicles on the road and 100 refueling stations in California alone. Market conditions led to the decline of the program and its eventual cancellation: gasoline prices fell, making it more affordable than methanol fuel. However, the 200 million plus miles driven in methanol www.methanol.org 20 Widespread adoption of vehicles powered by renewable methanol would dramatically lower CO2 emissions in transportation.PDF Image | Renewable Methanol Report
