From biogas to green fuels—we’re getting there!
What a moment! Seeing the first truckloads of biogenic CO₂ roll out from our Ammongas’ newly commissioned facility at Tønder Biogas is something truly special. This isn’t just any CO₂—it’s captured, purified, liquefied, and now playing a direct role in the production of e-methanol at Europe’s largest Power-to-X facility in Kassø from European Energy.
This is a big deal because Carbon Capture & Utilisation (CCU) is going to play a key role in achieving net zero. By utilising biogenic CO2, we are utilising carbon that is part of nature’s own carbon cycle, and by capturing and utilising it instead of releasing it, we’re helping make a truly renewable fuel—one that can power ships, replace fossil-based components in plastic production and the transport sector.
Of course, success always has many parents, but couple of contributions stand out—a huge shoutout to Tim Nærvig our Head of Carbon Capture pivotal in the whole process, and Martin Rasmussen, Lead Performance Engineer, who is supporting the commissioning. Their dedication and expertise have been instrumental in making this happen.

First liquefied CO₂ delivered from Tønder Biogas
Ammogas has delivered truckloads of liquefied CO₂, captured and purified at our newly commissioned facility. Tønder Biogas is one of the world’s largest biogas plants. Ammongas has engineered, designed, constructed and commissioned the CO2 liquefaction unit.
What makes this CO₂ special? It’s biogenic, meaning it’s part of the natural carbon cycle. By capturing and repurposing it for e-methanol production at the worlds fist large-scale e-methanol facility, in Kassø, we’re helping create a truly renewable fuel.
Unlike fossil-based CO₂, which adds new carbon to the atmosphere, biogenic CO₂ is already part of nature’s loop—making it a key ingredient in green fuels that can power ships and replace fossil-based components in plastic production.
Producing e-fuels requires three key ingredients:
⚡ Renewable electricity
💧 Water
🌱 Biogenic CO₂
And we’re proud to be delivering that last crucial piece. Seeing our liquefied CO₂ play a direct role in the production of e-methanol is an incredible moment for everyone involved.
A massive congratulations to our partners European Energy, Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, and Copenhagen Infrastructure Service Co.
