“…Of the studies based on point sources of CO 2 , Atsonios et al 38 reported on e-methanol production costs of 800–1700 € per t for CO 2 from a coal power plant, an electricity price range of 20–60 € per MWh, and a 0.25–0.5 availability factor, comparable to our results in 2030. Svitnič and Sundmacher 41 reported on a minimum production cost of 1392 and 799 USD per t MeOH at Port Arthur, Texas, USA, in 2019 and 2030, respectively. In our study, the cost of e-methanol production in the same region in 2020 and 2030 is 1600 and 700 € per t MeOH , respectively.…”
