đȘđȘ PĂ€rnu set to host the Balticsâ first synthetic-fuel hub
An international consortium led by Destiny Energy Singapore plans a Power-to-X e-methanol plant at PĂ€rnu Airport. The project will use captured COâ and green hydrogen to produce renewable methanol for shipping and industry.
Construction could start in 2026 once environmental and grid permits are cleared.
âïž Scale & relevance
Projected investment: âŹ200â250 million â Estoniaâs largest clean-fuel venture to date.
The plant would supply future methanol-powered vessels via PĂ€rnu and Riga ports and link directly to the EUâs FuelEU Maritime and RePowerEU targets.
đ Context
Estonia joins Denmark and Finland in piloting synthetic-fuel production, marking the countryâs entry into Europeâs fast-growing e-fuel economy.
