Evergreen Marine Corporation and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to jointly explore production and usage of carbon-neutral e-fuels.
CIP has signed the agreement on behalf of its Energy Transition Fund.
The cooperation will have several aspects including production of e-fuels in Taiwan based on offshore wind and exploration of a broader supply of green fuels such as e-ammonia and e-methanol.
CIP is currently constructing and developing several offshore wind farms in Taiwan with strong ties to the Taiwanese industries and society.
Evergreen said the collaboration represents a further step in the company’s strategy to achieve its carbon reduction goals. Aligned with the International Maritime Organization’s target for shipping of net-zero carbon emissions, Evergreen aims to achieve this goal by 2050.
CIP Partner Felix Pahl, commented, “ETF is the world’s largest fund dedicated to investing and developing advanced energy technology which supports the transition to renewable energy. CIP already has a strong footprint in Taiwan, and we are looking forward to working with Evergreen to further support Taiwan’s ambition of realizing 2050 net zero goal.”
