Present on the whole value chain of renewable fuels, MGH Energy integrates the technological bricks necessary for the production of E-fuel (E-methanol, E-kerosene in particular).
As a green technology company with a strong investment capacity, MGH Energy is developing a portfolio of advanced renewable fuels projects in France and abroad.
MGH Energy is committed to the energy transition and the decarbonization of the aeronautical and maritime sectors: MGH Energy develops, finances, builds and operates e-fuel production units (E-methanol, E-kerosene in particular) and markets these products allowing a saving of at least 70% of carbon emissions over the entire life cycle of these fuels.
MGH ENERGY : ZEPHYR ET BOREE
Low-carbon shipping
As part of its strategy to encourage the energy transition in maritime transport, MGH Energy has taken a 25% stake in the start-up company Zéphyr & Borée in 2019, which aims to design and operate merchant ships offering innovative low-carbon transport solutions. These hybrid ships, equipped with sails, aim to consume up to 45% less fuel.
By partnering with Zéphyr & Borée, MGH Energy wants to support this innovative system and plans to take the maritime decarbonization approach further by taking on board other technologies such as hydrogen and e-fuels.
In 2019, the Nantes-based start-up won the prestigious tender launched by ArianeGroup to transport the Ariane 6 launcher to French Guiana from 2022. Thanks to its four 375-square-meter articulated vertical wings and state-of-the-art weather routing, the 121-meter-long freighter will consume an average of 30% less fuel than a conventional ship.
Who we are ?
MGH Energy - Mobility Green horizon
A subsidiary of the Soper Group
MGH Energy (Mobility Green Horizon) is an innovative company dedicated to the decarbonisation of transport, mainly for the maritime and air sectors. MGH Energy is mainly developing projects for the production of Renewable Fuels of Non-Biological Origins (RFNBO), in France and internationally. These synthetic fuels, or e-fuels, are intended to replace fossil fuels such as methanol, kerosene, diesel, gasoline, LPG, etc.
Also concerned by the sail propulsion, MGH Energy has invested, in Zéphyr & Borée, in 2019. This pioneering company in the field of sailing transport is carrying the Canopée project: a transatlantic cargo ship that will transport the elements of the Ariane VI rocket on behalf of Ariane Group.
In the field of electric propulsion, MGH Energy delivered the world's first 100% electrically-powered pilot boat to the Sète-Frontignan port's Pilots Station, in 2021.
MGH Energy is a subsidiary of the Soper group. It is 100% owned by Jean-Michel Germa, a pioneer in wind power in France and Morocco, and founder in 1989 of La Compagnie du Vent, which was sold to Engie in 2017.
SOPER
The Soper Group
Soper is a company wholly owned by Jean-Michel Germa, a pioneer in wind energy in France and Morocco, and founder, in 1989, of La Compagnie du Vent sold in 2017 to ENGIE.
