Petrobras is launching its first call for proposals for the acquisition of biomethane. The initiative is aligned with the company’s objectives of decarbonizing its operations and operating with a robust and competitive portfolio of gas offerings with products with a lower carbon footprint. The initiative foresees the receipt of offers for firm contracts with receipt at different delivery points, such as refineries, thermoelectric plants, in the transportation network and in the distribution network. The process also seeks to survey the commercial conditions offered by the market based on the decarbonization mandate created by Law 14.993/2024, known as the Fuel of the Future Law.
The process encourages the development of the entire ecosystem related to biomethane in various parts of the country, in addition to having the potential to contribute to the viability of investments in the production chain, which involves the agroindustry, especially the sugar-alcohol and livestock segments, and sanitary landfills, contributing not only to the generation of clean energy, but also to waste management processes in these areas, with broad benefits to the entire society.
