  • Liquid Wind

    Participated · Series B · Oct 2022

    Liquid Wind is a Gothenburg-headquartered developer of eFuel production plants designed to supply carbon-neutral eMethanol to shipping, aviation and chemical customers. Its facilities pair renewable-powered electrolysis with captured biogenic CO₂ to create eMethanol, enabling significant CO₂ emission reductions; the planned Örnsköldsvik plant will combine 150,000 tons of CO₂ with green hydrogen to deliver 100,000 tons of eMethanol and avoid 200,000 tons of CO₂e annually. The company counts roughly 70 employees and is working toward a pipeline of 10 projects by 2027 across Sweden, Denmark and Finland. Liquid Wind’s investor base includes industrial and strategic backers such as Alfa Laval, Carbon Clean, Elyse Energy, HYCAP, Samsung Ventures, Siemens Energy, Topsoe and Uniper. The firm integrates its eFuel plants with existing bio-powered combined heat and power (CHP) stations to maximize efficiency and circularity. Recent non-dilutive financing, including a €3.6 million grant from the Swedish Energy Agency, is helping fund pre-engineering of its first full-scale facility. This support underscores the company’s alignment with national and EU green-transition programs and strengthens its appeal to future commercial investors and offtakers.
