Geely’s Methanol Revolution: A Greener Drive Ahead

Geely’s adoption of green methanol signals a promising move toward a sustainable future in transportation

In the global push for carbon neutrality, Geely Group is leading the charge with innovative solutions. Their focus on ‘green fuels,’ particularly methanol, presents a sustainable bridge before widespread electric vehicle adoption.

Geely’s Methanol Journey

Since 2005, Geely’s investment in green methanol, partnering with Carbon Recycling International (CRI), has paved the way for cleaner-burning fuel. This led to the establishment of China’s first carbon dioxide-to-methanol recycling plant in 2015.

Tackling Emissions at the Source

Geely’s carbon capture technology addresses heavy industry emissions, repurposing waste carbon dioxide into ‘green’ methanol, significantly reducing the carbon footprint.

Impressive Methanol-Powered Vehicles

Geely’s Emgrand M100 stands out, emitting just 46 grams per kilometer of CO2, along with substantial reductions in sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter.

Guiyang’s Methanol Success

Over 90% of Guiyang’s taxi fleet runs on methanol, showcasing the real-world impact of Geely’s initiatives and reducing the city’s oil dependence by 8%.

Emgrand M100 Evolution

The latest Emgrand M100 Hybrid introduces advanced technology, seamlessly transitioning between pure electric and methanol power, reflecting Geely’s commitment to sustainability.

Geely’s methanol initiatives offer a promising step toward a sustainable future, with proven success and real-world impact paving the way for a greener drive ahead.
