Green methanol – level 1

Green methanol

14-10-2025 15:00

Denmark makes new green fuel to help the planet. This fuel can help ships, planes, and cars. It can also help make things like plastic and paint.

The new factory in Denmark uses power from the sun. It takes water and makes a gas called hydrogen. Then, it mixes it with another gas to make green methanol. This new fuel is better for our planet because it is not so bad for the air.

Big companies, like Maersk and Lego, want to use it. Now it costs a lot, but Denmark wants to make more soon. This new fuel can make our world cleaner and safer.

Difficult words: fuel (something what gives energy), paint (a colored substance which we put on walls, wood, or other things to make them look nice), hydrogen (a light gas from water).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

What is produced when hydrogen is mixed with another gas in the new Danish factory?
