Green Methanol Market Size, Trends & Competitive Landscape 2032

The global green methanol market size was valued at USD 350.9 million in 2023 and is expected to grow from USD 526.2 million in 2024 to USD 16,021.8 million by 2032 at a CAGR of 53.3% during the forecast period. Renewable methanol can lead to the expansion of methanol usage as a fuel and chemical raw material and aid transport and industrial sectors in their movement toward net carbon neutrality goals. Even 100% carbon-free products can be produced by deploying different sustainable feedstocks, including CO2, waste, hydrogen, and biomass. Thus, this promising situation has drawn the attention of companies and investors in the conventional methanol market.
