A partnership that promises to change the Brazilian energy scenario

Petrobras, by signing an Agreement of Principles with European Energy, took a strategic step towards the energy transition by planning the construction of an e-methanol plant in Pernambuco. In addition, this collaboration reflects the search for innovation and sustainability, reaffirming Petrobras' commitment to reducing emissions and diversifying its energy matrix.

E-methanol: the solution the world needs to decarbonize

E-methanol, because it is produced from green hydrogen and biogenic carbon dioxide, is seen as a indispensable alternative to replace fossil fuels. Therefore, its use in both industry and maritime transport makes it an essential pillar for achieving global emissions reduction targets.

Petrobras' strategic planning points to the future

In line with the 2050 Strategic Plan, the agreement with European Energy represents a milestone in Petrobras’ energy transition. In this way, the partnership not only accelerates the adoption of clean fuels, but also promotes the exchange of technology and innovation.

European Energy brings expertise to e-methanol project

With a solid track record in renewable energy, European Energy stands out as a global leader in e-methanol projects. Thus, its contribution will be crucial to making this initiative viable in Brazil, further strengthening the country's position in the clean fuels market.

Pernambuco as a strategic center for sustainable innovation

Because it is a state with a privileged location, Pernambuco was chosen to host the project. In addition, its port infrastructure and access to renewable sources are factors that make the region ideal for boosting the local and national economy.

E-methanol: a game changer in maritime transport

Maritime transport, which is facing strong pressure to reduce emissions, will find e-methanol to be a practical and viable alternative. Thus, local production of this fuel reinforces Brazil’s commitment to global sustainability.

Brazil positions itself as a leader in sustainable fuels

By leveraging its abundance of renewable resources, Brazil is strategically positioned to lead the green fuels market. In doing so, the country strengthens its image as an exporter of sustainable solutions and attracts new investments.

Sustainability as the center of energy innovation

More than reducing emissions, the project also promotes job creation and the development of advanced technologies. In this way, the partnership reaffirms the commitment to building a green and resilient economy.

The future of energy transition in Brazil has already begun

Finally, the agreement with European Energy represents just the beginning of an energy transformation that will position Brazil as a global reference in clean and sustainable fuels.
