EcoCeres

EcoCeres was incubated by Towngas in 2008, which supported more than 15 years of research and commercialization before the corporate rebrand in 2021. It is a pure-play renewable fuels producer that makes renewable fuels and green molecules from 100% waste-based feedstocks. Its proprietary Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids (HEFA) technology platform converts those waste-based feedstocks into drop-in renewable fuels.

EcoCeres targets hard-to-abate sectors such as aviation and road transportation with its principal products, sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO). Its differentiation is the exclusive use of non-edible waste-based feedstocks, including used cooking oil and palm oil mill effluent, rather than crops. Its products achieve lifecycle greenhouse gas emission reductions of up to 94.4% compared to conventional fossil fuels.
