HIF Global Targets Cost Reduction for $4 Billion Hydrogen Plant in Brazil
HYDROGENMETHANOLSUSTAINABLE AVIATION FUEL
HIF Global expects to significantly reduce costs for its green-hydrogen plant in Port of Acu, Brazil, originally budgeted at $4 billion. The company plans to secure financing for the first of four modules by mid-2026, with each module producing 220,000 metric tons of methanol annually.
Current capital expenditure per module is below $1 billion, with further optimization planned. The site holds an environmental license for methanol production, and a license for e-sustainable aviation fuel is in development. HIF Global is focused on closing supply agreements with electricity companies and carbon dioxide suppliers this year.
