A simple recipe for decarbonized energy supply
Convert renewable energy into green hydrogen by electrolyzing water, then feed the hydrogen and CO2 into a MAN DWE® methanation reactor. This yields synthetic natural gas (SNG), also known as e-methane. Best of all, SNG is equivalent to natural gas, allowing you to utilize existing gas infrastructure for supply or long-term storage without limitations. MAN DWE® provides everything you need to unlock the benefits of SNG for your business, whether you are an independent power producer, industrial manufacturer, or transport provider. Our scalable power-to-gas plants enable you to produce SNG and feed it straight into the gas grid – reducing emissions and putting you at the forefront of energy independence and sustainability. SNG can also be converted into liquefied natural gas (LNG) for transport without pipelines.

Comprehensive service
Adapt today and improve your CO2 footprint
Our holistic SNG solutions convert renewable energy into carbon-neutral gas. Our power-to-gas solutions enable valuable, volatile and surplus green electricity to be used as well as the decarbonization of sectors that are difficult or impossible to electrify.
Ready-to-use green solution
SNG is not the only solution for decarbonizing energy and transport, but it can be implemented straightaway. Unlike hydrogen and electricity, gas comes with complete supply and storage infrastructure, and SNG does not require modifications to the gas grid or gas-powered consumer equipment, whether industrial, transport, or domestic.
One-stop solution
From hydrogen production to methanation – MAN DWE® offers the whole value chain to future-proof your energy supply. Our 360° approach includes all hardware and software, process licenses, engineering, manufacturing and on-site activities.
Large-scale production
We are a leading technology provider for commercial-scale production of green SNG with an input capacity of more than 500 MW per reactor train. Our solutions are based on more than 75 years’ experience in large-scale reactor projects.
Supporting the energy transition
Power-to-gas produces clean SNG, supports decarbonization, and helps reduce greenhouse gases. As the greening of the gas grid and the use of LNG in the transport sector continue to progress, the production of SNG has enormous growth potential.
