news item image
Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) developer Firefly Green Fuels signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Sanepar - one of Brazil’s largest water and sanitation companies.
This strategic partnership enhances Firefly’s access to sustainable feedstock for biofuels production while expanding its footprint into the growing Brazilian and Latin American markets.
Through this new collaboration, Firefly Green Fuels and Sanepar will jointly explore opportunities to convert locally aggregated biosolids (sewage) into advanced biofuels, including SAF.
Sanepar’s well-established infrastructure network positions it as a critical partner for securing the reliable supply of feedstock needed to meet the growing global demand for SAF.
The partnership with Sanepar is a key milestone for Firefly, ensuring a stable and diverse feedstock supply for its SAF production.
By utilising Brazil's extensive waste resources, Firefly is poised to strengthen its global reach and to support aviation companies in their mission to decarbonize their operations.
"Brazil has emerged as a global leader in biofuels, and this partnership with Sanepar solidifies Firefly’s position in this rapidly growing market," said James Hygate, CEO of Firefly Green Fuels.
"The MOU reflects our commitment to our mission – decarbonising aviation and tackling climate change. With Brazil's government actively promoting biofuels through recent legislation and incentives, we are excited about the opportunities this partnership will unlock for both our company and our future customers."
Brazil has been a player in the biofuels industry for decades, and the country's recent policy announcements further strengthen its position as a renewable energy leader.
In 2024, the Brazilian government announced a series of new measures aimed at expanding biofuel production, including a mandate for increasing the percentage of biofuels in transportation fuels and investing in new technologies for SAF production.
