TOTALENERGIES PARTNERS WITH MAJOR INTERNATIONAL COMPANIES TO SUPPORT E-NG DEVELOPMENT
TotalEnergies is currently studying the “Live Oak e-NG” project with Tree Energy Solutions (TES), to produce 100,000 to 200,000 tons of e-NG per year in the United States by 2030.
TotalEnergies is joining seven major companies to create an international coalition supporting the development of production and use of e-natural gas (e-NG), a synthetic natural gas produced from renewable hydrogen and CO2.
e-NG can be transported and/or liquefied and then sold like natural gas, using existing infrastructure. It thus can be used by end customers without any adaptation to their facilities, making it a particularly interesting synthetic fuel to support their decarbonization efforts.
TotalEnergies and its partners – Engie, Mitsubishi Corporation, Osaka Gas, Sempra Infrastructure, TES, Tokyo Gas and Toho Gas – are pooling their expertise and efforts to establish the “e-NG Coalition”, whose purpose is to support e-NG development in a reliable, affordable and sustainable way.
The coalition aims to:
- promote the use of e-NG and support the emergence of a global market;
- foster adequate support by policymakers and harmonization of applicable regulation and standards;
- and bolster collaboration between the various stakeholders, along the entire value chain and across all geographies.
