New Biofuel Agreement Confirms Company Commitment to Sustainability and Innovation

The renowned Ternium Brazil, a leader in flat steel production in Latin America, together with Gás Verde, the largest producer of biomethane in the region, recently announced a new and promising partnership for the supply of biomethane. The announcement took place during a meeting at the industrial center of Santa Cruz, located in the West Zone of Rio de Janeiro.

The Power of Biomethane: A 100% Renewable Fuel

Biomethane is a fully renewable energy source capable of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by an impressive 99.9%. Produced from biogas generated from landfill waste, this fuel has the potential to be used in industrial production processes and to fuel vehicles. It emerges as a viable and sustainable alternative to diesel, LPG, fuel oil, natural gas, and gasoline.

Innovation as the Key to Sustainability

Marcelo Chara, CEO of Ternium Brazil, highlighted that “Ternium believes that sustainability is the engine for development and innovation. In 2019, we were the first company to use biomethane in steel production. Now, with the new agreement, we reinforce our commitment to using waste gas that benefits companies, society, the environment, and the surrounding community.”

The Mission of Gás Verde in the Energy Transition

“Our mission is to help companies advance in their NetZero journeys. We are committed to the energy transition and are confident that biomethane is the most efficient option, eliminating the need for offsets, as it truly reduces companies’ emissions,” stated the CEO of Gás Verde, Marcel Jorand.
