SolWinHy Cádiz

SolWinHy Cádiz is an innovative green methanol production plant located in Arcos de la Frontera, Cádiz, Spain. As the first project in a series aimed at advancing renewable energy, this facility is set to produce 29,000 tons of E-Methanol annually. The plant is powered entirely by renewable energy, utilizing a 130 MW solar PV installation and a 54 MW wind farm. This setup allows the facility to operate independently of the national grid in island mode, ensuring that all hydrogen and methanol production is 100% renewable. An 80 MW electrolyzer generates green hydrogen, which is combined with biogenic CO2 to produce methanol. The project is situated on 463 hectares of agricultural land, secured through a 35-year lease with the option to extend for an additional five years. SolWinHy Cádiz is strategically positioned to supply green methanol to Germany, with advanced negotiations already underway with potential off-takers.
