Our vision: Filling Station
with Blender Pumps.
•
A7
Regular gasoline with 7%
Alcohol (3% methanol & 4%
ethanol)
M30
High Blend allowed in
the EU for any petrol vehicle.
M85
High Blend for flex fuel
vehicles and flex fuel kits.
M100+
Neat methanol for
fuel cell engines.
MD95
Methanol with a
cetane improver for diesel
engines.
IEA-AMF
Methanol
Annex
56
Next Step.
A fairly detailed plan to be carried
out:
•
Fleet trial with many and
different
vehicles
with
gasoline combustion engines
and some electric cars with
methanol-powered
range
extenders.
Preliminary
study
of
methanol as propellant for
other engines (diesel).
Optimization and approval of
Electronic Control Unit (ECU)
for 105 octane M85.
Demonstration of blender
pumps according to our
vision.
Publication and promotion.

The IEA-AMF Annex 56 Methanol
project initiated 2018 by
Technological
Institute
and
Danish Methanol Association,
supported by The Danish Energy
Agency, is now coming to an end.
The project's test car equipped
with a cheap French plug n play
flex fuel kit now runs on M85
(85% methanol + 15% gasoline).
The test car is a standard 68 HP
Peugeot 107 City Car. On M85 it
peeked with 5 HP extra and the
max. torque went up 5 Nm too.
On M85 with biomethanol made
from Danish biogas the carbon
footprint is smaller than for any
electric vehicle.
