Chiyoda Group's Australian subsidiary, CHIYODA ENERGIES PTY LTD, is executing an Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contract for a large-scale Direct Methylcyclohexane electrosynthesis (Direct MCH® *) demonstration plant, awarded by ENEOS Corporation (ENEOS).
The demonstration forms part of Green Innovation Fund Projects for Large-scale Hydrogen Supply Chain Establishment/Direct MCH Electrosynthesis Technology Development, commissioned by the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) to reduce the production costs of MCH derived from renewable energy. The plant aims to identify obstacles for future social implementation of Green MCH production technology and will be equipped with a large-scale Direct MCH® electrolyzer developed by ENEOS.
Through this project, Chiyoda continues to support the early implementation of MCH production technology.
