The Global Overview of Methanol in Transport report (154 pages) by SGS INSPIRE examines methanol’s expanding role across multiple transport sectors, including road, heavy-duty freight, marine, aviation, and fuel cell vehicles. It covers methanol applications in spark-ignition and compression-ignition engines, marine dual-fuel vessels, aviation fuel production (methanol-to-jet), and hydrogen carriers. The report also details regulatory frameworks across regions, blending standards, and fuel quality limits. Global and regional methanol production capacities—including bio-methanol, e-methanol, and low-carbon methanol—are mapped, along with planned expansions post-2025. A dedicated section reviews China’s methanol transport strategy and vehicle deployment. Insights into methanol’s infrastructure compatibility, emissions benefits, and emerging uses in hybrid and electric transport systems are included, making this report essential for stakeholders across energy, shipping, aviation, and automotive industries.
