FatHopes Energy signs UCO collection enterprise

FatHopes Energy has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with NTT DATA Corporation to jointly scale a waste cooking oil collection enterprise application in Japan and in other markets.
The signing ceremony took place at EXPO 2025 Osaka, which welcomed over 20,400 visitors on 9 September and has received more than 2.8 million visitors to the Malaysian Pavilion since April 2025.
The event was witnessed by YBhg Dato’ Haji Mad Zaidi bin Mohd Karli, Secretary General, Ministry of Energy Transition and Water Transformation (PETRA).
SAF is widely recognised as one of the most effective solutions to decarbonise the aviation industry.
However, its adoption is challenged by the need for a stable supply of raw materials, efficient collection and distribution, and traceability.
FatHopes Energy has been addressing these challenges for more than a decade across Southeast Asia by leveraging advanced technologies such as IoT-based oil level monitoring and automatic collection notifications in real time via its proprietary digital app stack.
FatHopes Energy, in collaboration with NTT DATA, will develop a cutting-edge waste oil collection application, allowing businesses to track collection volumes and locations, automatically generate necessary documentation, and streamline certification processes.
"This collaboration with NTT DATA reflects our commitment to innovation, efficiency, and sustainability. By combining our expertise in waste oil collection with advanced digital and Ai technologies, we are taking a significant step towards scaling SAF adoption both regionally and globally," shared Vinesh Sinha, CEO and founder of FatHopes Energy.
