Rejaile Group Invests in Biogas Refinery
The Rejaile Group, a well-known fuel distributor in Paraná, now renamed RDP Energia, marks a new chapter in its history with a significant investment of R$ 50 million. This investment aims to create the first biogas refinery in the state, utilizing pig farming waste, a giant step towards sustainability and innovation.
Sustainable Transformation
The biogas project initiated by the Rejaile Group is a clear demonstration of its commitment to sustainable practices. Biogas, a 100% renewable biofuel, will be produced in the city of Toledo, with a projected production of up to 3 million m³ per year starting in 2026. The choice of biogas as the focus of the project reflects a conscious direction towards greener and more responsible energy sources, offering alternatives for a more sustainable future.
Pioneering and Partnership
The choice of biogas produced from pig farming waste is pioneering in Brazil. With an initial capacity to refine and purify between 4.5 and 5.5 million m³ of biogas per year, the Toledo plant positions itself as a landmark in the biofuels sector. The partnership with CIBiogás, a biogas research institute, further strengthens this project, bringing innovation and technology to the process.
