Overview

The workshop provides attendees with a general understanding of the current biofuels and advanced fuels landscape, as well as its relationship to the energy transition, which is creating opportunities for such fuels as biomethane, HVO, SAF and renewable hydrogen.   

Biomethane already stands out as a viable alternative to natural gas, which can be injected into the distribution network or used in heavy transport. In addition, oil and gas companies are increasing their investments in low-carbon fuels in order to remain competitive and sustainable. These trends reinforce the global energy transition, driving innovation and opportunities in the sector.    

With the aim of exploring business and investment opportunities in the energy supply chain, the workshop will give participants a good understanding of the growth of the biofuels and advanced fuels sector, driven by decarbonisation policies and new carbon markets.  

The workshop will be delivered in Portuguese and will happen in person at EIC Rio Office.
