At FinCo, we are good in grasping that complexity and making legislation easier to understand for our organisation and for our customers. What does it mean when we add a new energy carrier, such as electricity, to our product portfolio? Which regulations does it have to comply with, how can we sell it and to whom?
If you look at the added value that FinCo can offer in electricity, you will quickly come across HBEs. You can also create this with electric transport, except it is very difficult and certainly not yet possible for private individuals. The first strategic step that FinCo has taken is entering into a partnership with EQUANS, international market leader in technical services, to further stimulate e-mobility in The Netherlands. Because of this partnership we now offer integrated charging and green energy solutions to our customers in the on- and offroad sectors. Off course we are looking at what else we can do with our knowledge and our broad network. For us, electricity is a new business, which we know is going to be big; we have to respond to that.
Our Business Manager Bio Harmen Huiskens explains: “Making information manageable and thinking about the long-term strategy – that’s what I like most about my work. If you look at electricity you suddenly see all kinds of links. We now work together with an electricity service company in the mobility sector, both providing our own knowledge and expertise. It is an evident connection with opportunities to expand our own knowledge and expertise. And that’s exactly what FinCo does.”

There are several reasons why methanol is interesting for FinCo and the markets we serve. First off: methanol is a liquid. This means that it fits perfectly into our existing logistics system. Secondly, you can make methanol from almost any residue stream you can think of, so the feedstocks are always available. In addition, methanol’s production process is relatively simple and requires relatively little energy. And because you make it from sustainable feedstocks, the product has a very low carbon footprint, with savings up to 80 to high in the 90s percent. So when we’re talking about methanol, we’re always talking about bio-methanol.
