The partnership will also include the issuance of global I-RECS certificates and is expected to offset around 190 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions per year. Raizen Power, a subsidiary of sugar exporter and cellulosic ethanol producer Raizen SA, currently manages over 50 solar and biomass-fired plants, further solidifying its position in the renewable energy sector.

What are the benefits of Raizen Power's solar and biomass energy contract with Embracon?

  • Reduction of carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 190 tonnes per year
  • Increased use of renewable energy sources such as solar and biomass
  • Contribution to the growth of distributed generation (DG) in Brazil
  • Partnership between Raizen Power and Embracon to promote sustainable energy practices
  • Issuance of global I-RECS certificates to demonstrate commitment to renewable energy initiatives
  • Expansion of Raizen Power's portfolio of solar and biomass-fired plants, strengthening its presence in the renewable energy sector.
