摘要

In addition to battery electric, hybrid, and fuel cell powertrains, e-fuels are of great importance for CO2-neutral mobility. In the future, several different scenarios depending on different boundary conditions are feasible, but most agree that all solutions for a CO2-neutral world combined are going to be needed. Especially for large transportation systems, such as airplanes or ships, most probably liquid fuels will be used. Therefore, the interest in e-fuels increases and Power-to-X plants based on solar and wind energy are becoming common world-wide. Choosing the most advantageous e-fuel and determining the final production cost can vary depending on factors such as plant size, operation strategy, and local constraints like the available CO2 source as well as wind and solar irradiance. Especially for smaller-sized plants in the MW power range, methanol production is a particularly viable choice.
