Greenlyte and MB Energy sign strategic e-methanol offtake agreement

German companies Greenlyte Carbon Technologies and MB Energy, formerly known as Mabanaft, have signed a strategic agreement for the offtake of e-methanol from Greenlyte’s LiquidSolar facility in Marl. The deal also includes advanced offtake intentions for future projects.

The seven-figure agreement formalises MB Energy’s plan to source e-fuel from Greenlyte’s upcoming commercial facilities. The partnership will focus on deploying Greenlyte’s LiquidSolar technology at industrial and mobility hubs across Europe and other regions. The fully electric system produces feedstocks for e-methanol, e-diesel and sustainable aviation fuel (eSAF).

Florian Hildebrand, CEO and co-founder of Greenlyte, said: “The strong interest signals that the LiquidSolar revolution is coming. We are thrilled that MB Energy is supporting us as an early adopter, placing their trust in our technology. Together, we’re working to develop an energy supply model that reduces reliance on fossil fuels and that will be scaled globally to meet industrial demands.”

Oleksandr Siromakha, Head of Sustainable Fuels at MB Energy, added: “We are excited to see new technologies evolving that aim to increase the availability and affordability of e-fuels, and we are proud to support and contribute to these important developments. This strategic partnership marks an important step in advancing our commitment to the energy transition. By securing access to e-methanol, we are strengthening our ability to offer lower-emission fuel solutions to our customers. It supports our vision of becoming the preferred independent liquid fuels supplier in our core markets, delivering long-term value through cleaner alternatives.”

MB Energy rebranded in 2025 to strengthen its position as an emerging energy sector player, combining traditional values with a focus on innovative technologies. CEO Jonathan Perkins said the new brand reflects the company’s “commitment to a secure and sustainable energy supply.”
