Raízen, recognized as the largest global producer of second-generation ethanol (E2G), sees this biofuel as an essential solution for its commitment to producing renewable and clean energy.

The multinational announced plans to build nine more cellulosic ethanol plants, all with volumes already sold under long-term contracts. The company’s plan includes a total of 20 E2G units, developed to produce 1.6 billion liters per year.

The establishment of the second-generation ethanol plant brings significant benefits to local communities, increasing participation in the state municipalities fund, promoting shared economic growth, and developing national suppliers. The construction of the 20 units is expected to impact over 500 suppliers and create over 17,000 direct and indirect jobs.

To train the employees of the new plants, Raízen developed the first E2G Learning Program in partnership with institutions such as Senai, ETECs, and BioContal. According to Mussa, emphasizing that these investments reinforce the company’s commitment to sustainability and innovation, Raízen has 35% of its debt linked to renewable projects, including the construction of the new plants, through the anticipation of future revenues and green loans, such as the issuance of the first green bond. Its commitment is to increase renewable energy production by 80% by 2030.
