Wison Engineering officially signed a contract with ITC and WasteFuel on March 19 at its headquarters in Shanghai.
The Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) contract for the ITC-WasteFuel Ankara Green Methanol Project marks a significant step toward producing low-carbon, renewable methanol to reduce the shipping industry’s carbon footprint and support its energy transition.
The project aims to utilize biogas from ITC’s waste treatment facilities in Ankara to produce green methanol, with a final investment decision (FID) expected in early 2026.
David Trench, CEO of WasteFuel, stated: “This next phase of project development is absolutely crucial, and we’re pleased to select Wison Engineering as our partner. This project has the potential to become a global reference point in the green methanol landscape.”
Yavuz Kantur, General Manager of ITC, added: “This project not only aims to deliver a low-carbon fuel but also provides an innovative solution for the 1.8 million tons of municipal waste received annually from the Ankara metropolitan area. Wison’s expertise in pioneering energy projects gives me confidence in this next phase of work.”
