What They Do
Liquid Wind specializes in developing commercial-scale eFuel facilities that convert green hydrogen and biogenic CO2 into eMethanol, targeting hard-to-abate sectors such as shipping, aviation, and heavy industry (source: liquidwind.com). The company employs a standardized, modular project development approach supported by digital tools, positioning itself as a project developer and technology integrator rather than a conventional fuel producer (source: liquidwind.com). Its business model focuses on replicable eFuel plants designed to produce lower-carbon liquid fuels for global markets, leveraging an investor and partner network that includes industrial and energy companies such as Alfa Laval, Siemens Energy, and Uniper (source: careers.liquidwind.com). The company maintains offices in Gothenburg and Stockholm, with additional presence in Denmark, Finland, and the UK, supporting its cross-border operations and project development activities (source: liquidwind.com).
Projects & Track Record
Liquid Wind's project portfolio centers on a Nordic pipeline of eFuel plants, with its flagship project, FlagshipONE, marking the start of construction for its first facility in rnsk ldsvik, Sweden (source: liquidwind.com). The company has planned or ongoing projects in Sundsvall, Ume , rnsk ldsvik, Haapavesi, and Naantali, aiming to develop 10 eFuel facilities by 2027 (source: careers.liquidwind.com). Early projects are expected to produce a combined output of at least 300,000 tonnes of green electrofuel, with specific plants such as a 100,000 t/a green methanol facility in rnsk ldsvik and a 130,000 t/a plant in Ume slated to begin production in 2027 (source: bcinsight.crugroup.com). The company has also partnered with Turun Seudun Energiantuotanto Oy for a facility in Naantali, Finland, further expanding its Nordic footprint (source: liquidwind.com).
Recent Developments
In late 2024, Liquid Wind secured 44 million in Series C financing led by Uniper, HYCAP Fund I SCSp, and Samsung Ventures to support its goal of developing 10 eFuel facilities by 2027 (source: eu-startups.com). Throughout 2025 and into 2026, the company announced multiple milestones including environmental permits for its Ume and rnsk ldsvik facilities, a 3.6 million grant for the rnsk ldsvik project, and collaborations with regional energy partners (source: liquidwind.com). However, in May 2026, Liquid Wind AB filed for bankruptcy in Gothenburg, marking a significant development in the company's trajectory (source: bioenergyinternational.com).
