About the project
ELECTROMET aims to develop a sustainable, cost-effective solution for producing renewable methane (RCH4) via direct CO2 electroreduction, integrating it into the renewable fuel market. Aligned with TRI3, it accelerates renewable fuel commercialization to reduce CO2 emissions by 2030 and achieve climate neutrality by 2050. Key objectives include: (I) Designing novel electrocatalysts to improve CO2-to-RCH4 efficiency; (II) Developing and validating large-scale electroreduction technology under real industrial conditions; (III) Establishing a Digital Twin for process optimization and scalability; and (IV) Creating a roadmap for commercial implementation. The project aligns with the EU’s clean energy transition, integrating an IP strategy and business model for widespread adoption. Economic benefits include commercial uptake and job creation. ELECTROMET progresses from laboratory research to industrial-scale validation (TRL6, BRL4), fostering innovation and sustainability in the biogas and carbon-intensive industries.
