Goldwind Green Energy Chemicals produces RED III compliant biomethanol
In China, Goldwind Green Energy Chemicals (Xing’an League) Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Goldwind Technology — one of the world’s leading wind turbine manufacturers — set out to build a green hydrogen-to-methanol facility of unprecedented scale in Xing’an League, Inner Mongolia. The project uses wind power to produce green hydrogen, which is then combined with biomass-derived carbon sources to produce green methanol, a low-carbon marine fuel increasingly demanded by the global shipping industry as it decarbonizes under IMO and EU regulatory pressure.
Positioned as a flagship of China’s “new energy-based hydrogen production+” industrial chain, the project was designed not only to serve the domestic market but to enter international supply chains — including green shipping fuel contracts with major global carriers. To do that, the methanol produced needed to meet the sustainability and greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction requirements recognized in the European Union and international shipping markets.
DQS was engaged as the certification body to guide Goldwind Green Energy Chemicals through the full ISCC EU certification process, combining technical rigor with practical, on-the-ground project management.
