Petrobras exploring alcohol-to-jet production

In Brazil, Bloomberg reports Petrobras is exploring the production of jet fuel from corn- or sugarcane-based ethanol as part of its major $16.7 billion investment package through 2028, but logistics will be crucial. In order to make the investment work, ethanol pipelines would likely be required to supply the feedstock directly to refineries. Brazil is pushing for sustainable aviation fuel as part of a recent bill that was approved increasing a range of biofuel mandates, including SAF.
