In addition, Carbon Recycling International (CRI) announced the allocation of new CO2to Methanol production unit in Anyang China, which will recycle 160,000 Tonnes of CO2 per year. This upcoming unit is expected to improve the feedstock Methanol availability in the country. Europe European Formaldehyde market improved in Q1 2021, the improved demand from downstream sector like resins, food and plastics enhanced the market sentiments across the region. In addition, Equinor’s major Methanol plant in Norway resumed its production after months of prolonged shutdown due to a fire hazard in December 2020. As this plant accounts more than 25% of total Methanol production in Europe and incurs a massive plant capacity of 900,000 MT/year, the shutdown impacted the production of Formaldehyde across the region in the first quarter of 2021. Following the resumption, supply crisis for Formaldehyde in Europe will considerably improve which will further slow down its price increment all over the Europe. North America US Formaldehyde market experienced shortage of supply during Q1 2021 due to significant shortage of feedstock Methanol across the region. Winter storm in gulf region sparked fire on the ongoing crisis of feedstock Methanol, which was previously started during Q4 2020 due to multiple hurricanes across the region. Major Methanol and Formaldehyde plants faced power outages across Texas, due to freezing weather conditions. In line with the substantial demand for feedstock Methanol for fuel, and insufficient supply, prices of Formaldehyde rose rapidly, but this price acceleration is anticipated to stabilize with the arrival of summers in the region.
