भारताचे पहिले CO2-टू-मेथेनॉल पायलट प्लांट महाराष्ट्रातील पुण्यात कार्यान्वित करण्यात आले. हे विज्ञान आणि तंत्रज्ञान विभागाच्या सहकार्याने सार्वजनिक-खाजगी भागीदारीत विकसित करण्यात आले आहे. हा प्लांट दररोज 1.4 टन मेथेनॉल उत्पादन करण्यास सक्षम आहे. औद्योगिक स्रोतांमधून CO2 उत्सर्जन पकडून ते मेथेनॉलमध्ये रूपांतरित करण्याची तंत्रज्ञान प्रणाली येथे वापरण्यात आली आहे. भारताच्या पंचामृत हवामान उद्दिष्टांशी सुसंगत असलेल्या स्वदेशी कार्बन कॅप्चर आणि युटिलायझेशन (CCU) तंत्रज्ञानाच्या दिशेने ही महत्त्वपूर्ण प्रगती आहे.
