Drop-in marine biofuel from non-edible biomass
About Kvasir Technologies
Kvasir Technologies is a Copenhagen cleantech spin-out from DTU (Technical University of Denmark), founded in 2018 by CEO Joachim Bachmann Nielsen and COO Anders Bak Kristoffersen. It converts non-edible lignin-rich agricultural and forestry residues into climate-neutral marine biofuel via a patented single-step solvothermal liquefaction process that can drop into existing ship engines and fuel infrastructure without modification, and is miscible with fossil marine fuels for blended transition. The company reports retaining more than 80% of the biomass's combustible energy in the bio-oil and operates a Fredericia test facility producing up to two tonnes per day. In June 2026 Kvasir raised a €10 million Series A with new investor European Energy alongside EIFO, Mærsk Growth and Footprint Fund, and formed JV KVEEN Biofuels with European Energy to advance a first commercial plant in Aabenraa while scaling the Fredericia facility. In July 2026 MarineFifty announced its intention, subject to contract, to invest up to €11 million as part of the Series A round. Sources: EU-Startups 18 Jun 2026; kvasirtechnologies.com 1 Jul 2026.
