LiquidSolar SNG serves as the first plant combining a direct synthesis use case with Greenlyte’s green molecule platform LiquidSolar™, in this case synthetic natural gas.
LiquidSolar™ is Greenlyte’s fully electrified, modular system uniquely combining carbon capture with green hydrogen production to deliver high purity syngas for downstream synthesis into products such as e-methanol and sustainable aviation fuel (e-SAF), at fossil-competitive costs.
With its LiquidSolar SNG project, Greenlyte will demonstrate the commercial readiness of its technology over the next years. The total engineering to inauguration phase took less than 12 months and the final build-out of the plant less than three months. The plant will deliver 5 tpy of SNG and has a carbon removal capacity of 40 tpy of CO2.
Greenlyte’s technology is modular, scalable, and ready for the market. Over 13 000 operating hours in pilot projects demonstrate its reliability. The Duisburg facility is a first step in a comprehensive industrialisation strategy: by 2027, a scaled plant producing e-methanol is planned for Marl, Germany, and entry into international markets is targeted by 2030. Greenlyte has already secured long-term offtake agreements with companies such as Eurowings and MB Energy.
Florian Hildebrand, CEO and Co-Founder of Greenlyte, said: “Our system is technically advanced, economically attractive for customers, and offers strong return opportunities for investors. We are building the foundation for a competitive new energy industry by drawing on NRW’s industrial legacy, excellent research ecosystem, and a dense supplier network – making optimal use of the great resources we have here.”
