Ren-Gas, the leading green hydrogen and e-methane project developer in Finland, has selected MAN Energy Solution as one of the key technology providers for the Tampere Power-to-Gas project. MAN’s catalytic methanation technology will be used to convert green hydrogen and captured biogenic CO₂ into renewable e-methane.

MAN Energy Solutions will oversee the design, manufacturing, pre-fabrication, testing, delivery, installation supervision, commissioning, and performance testing of the equipment. This extensive scope guarantees that the project leverages MAN’s advanced technology and expertise at every phase, from initial design to final performance validation.

Ren-Gas’s facility in Tampere is set to produce renewable e-methane for heavy road and maritime transport sectors. In the e-methane production MAN’s methanation reactor will use approximately 40,000 tons of carbon dioxide captured annually from the Tarastenjärvi waste incineration plant’s flue gases, along with green hydrogen produced with electrolyzers.

The plant will yield approximately 200 GWh of renewable fuel for heavy road and maritime transport annually, as well as 180 GWh of carbon dioxide-free district heating for Tampere’s district heating system.

Ren-Gas is the leading green hydrogen and e-methane project developer in Finland, which has secured significant public support for its portfolio from Finnish Government as well as from EU. The company has developed an industry benchmark project portfolio, from which the Tampere facility is proceeding the construction in 2025, and commercial operation will start in 2027.
