CIRCLENERGY Production of renewable methanol from captured emissions and renewable energy sources, for its utilisation for clean fuel production and green consumer goods

Coordinator: CRI EHF (IS)

Headquartered in Reykjavik, Iceland, Carbon Recycling International (CRI) is the world leader in power to methanol technology. The company has accumulated a decade of experience in solving the problems of economical CO2 capture and valorisation as well as reliable and cost effective large-scale production of hydrogen by electrolysis. CRI invented a new integrated process for sustainable low-carbon intensity fuel production. CRI’s Emissions-to-Liquids (ETL) technology has been scaled up from a laboratory scale pilot to an operating industrial scale plant with a capacity of 4,000 tons/year meth…

About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)

Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €50k toward a total project budget of €71k — a funding rate of 70%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 0.3 years from 2017-12-01 to 2018-03-31.
