BIOE
IS FOUNDED
GENERATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY AND NATURAL GAS
transformed into biomethane:
substituting the use of
0000 170 million
liters of diesel
Garbage ceases to be a problem and becomes a source of raw-material
and renewable energy since this is an everyday reality for Orizon. The
launch of BioE in 2022 is the obvious realization of this situation. BioE
works with the generation of renewable electricity by collecting the
biogas produced at the ecoparks, using a process that involves supplying
motogenerators that transform biogas into clean, tax-deducted electricity.
Furthermore, one of BioE's products is biomethane, a natural renewable
gas, obtained by purifying biogas and thus allowing for the substitution
of fossil fuels such as natural gas, diesel and liquefied petroleum gas
(LPG). Another advantage of this renewable molecule is its flexibility in
terms of distribution through a network of pipelines, or using land, rail or
waterway transportation.

BIOE REPRESENTS A STEP FORWARD
IN THE LOW-CARBON ECONOMY,
A REDUCTION IN THE EMISSION OF
GREENHOUSE GASES, AND A REDUCTION IN
THE DEPENDENCY ON FOSSIL FUELS
Capable of meeting the
consumption needs of
500000+
individuals per year
As well as reducing GHG emissions, the Orizon Ecopark contributes to the
Brazilian clean energy grid and to the preservation of natural resources, by
producing renewable electricity and natural gas.View entire presentation
