Producing renewable DME using renewable energy and CO2

Coordinator of the project and owner and developer of the SEDMES technology.

Among the top engineering companies in the world, committed to developing low-carbon technologies that would enable the energy industry to realize its carbon footprint commitments.

Shell opened up its research facilities in Amsterdam for other parties to co-innovate and accelerate innovative solutions for the energy transition. The Energy Transition Campus Amsterdam (ETCA) is the location for SEDMES’ long duration test campaign in the POWERED project.

Has extensive knowledge and experience in the field of zero emission vehicles. As one of the European Pioneers VDL realized the first introduction of large scale deployment of zero emission bus fleets in Europe. Within POWERED project VDL will actively focus on local seasonal energy storage with DME and help design the EMS.

Tata Steel Nederland wants to become a frontrunner in the production of sustainable steel by reducing the greenhouse gases emissions. Tata Steel will work on the techno-economics of synthesizing DME from carbon-rich off-gas streams typically present at an integrated, high quality steel making plant.

Is an independent -venture between SHV Energy and UGI International, advancing the production and use of renewable and recycled carbon dimethyl ether (rDME), a low-carbon sustainable liquid gas, to accelerate renewable solutions for the LPG industry. Dimeta will supply a DME storage facility and lead a policy review and sustainability assessment.

Is a subsidiary of Aramco, a world leading integrated energy and chemicals company. Headquartered in The Hague, the offices in Europe support a wide range of strategic activities from facilitating the safe and reliable delivery of energy to customers around the globe, to pushing for breakthroughs in research and innovation. Aramco Europe sponsors part of the DME purification system and is active in the techno economical evaluation.

Nouryon; is a global leader in essential solutions. Companies around the world rely on our products to make everyday essentials such as paper, plastics, building materials, pharmaceuticals and personal care products. Nouryon has a DME plant in Rotterdam where DME is produced by dehydration of methanol. In POWERED, Nouryon will be involved in purifying DME, testing rDME samples and evaluating different use cases and specifications in a market study for rDME.

Technolution is a reliable and innovative technology integrator, from Gouda. Technolution designs, builds and manages digitalization solutions. Within the Energy domain Technolution is known for open real-time energy management platforms as supporting pillar for the energy transition. Together with Phase to Phase, Technolution will design and build an EMS that will ensure optimal energy conversion and storage for the system.

Is Dutch market leader in software products for electricity grid modelling and calculation. Phase to Phase aims to facilitate an impactful energy transition for its clients through continuously developing the best decision support tools for grid engineers and grid planners. Enabling quick, reliable and precise modelling capabilities of the behavior of chemical, sustainable processes such as SEDMES, contributes to this essential core capability, which shows the reason Phase to Phase is proud to be part of the POWERED project.
