Green Fuels teams with Aris Bioenergy on UCO biodiesel in India

In the UK, Green Fuels signed a memorandum of understanding with Aris Bioenergy Pvt Ltd, having a large-scale network of used cooking oil aggregation, committing the two companies to a biodiesel refining joint venture in India.

Under the agreement, Green Fuels and Aris have formed a company that will leverage Aris’s considerable experience in used cooking oil collection in the Mumbai metropolitan area. This feedstock will be transformed into biodiesel in a Green Fuels FuelMatic GSX20 biorefinery to be located in an industrial zone midway between Mumbai and Pune. The joint venture is currently engaged in the tendering process to supply the offtake from this and future plants to India’s three state-operated Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs).
