We were born in the renewable energy segment, working with clean electricity generation in Isolated Systems, located in the northern region of Brazil.
The plants at Grupo BBF operate with biofuels (biodiesel and vegetable oil) and biomass from oil palm, serving more than 140,000 residents.
We are the only company that operates with B100 biodiesel to replace fossil diesel on a commercial scale in the Isolated Systems.

Our mission is to decarbonize the lung of the Amazon by making clean, renewable electricity available.
Our thermoelectric plants guarantee energy security in isolated systems for more than 140,000 residents.
We operate in regions that are not connected to the National Interconnected System and our energy is generated from palm oil biodiesel.
In these communities there are small thermal power plants, most of which run on fossil diesel. We are pioneers in the generation of clean electric energy with biofuels, produced from oil palm.
Our business model is verticalized. We start by planting oil palm according to the zoning legislation, develop biofuels, and generate clean and renewable electric power.
We are proud to be more than 5,000 direct employees, more than 15,000 indirect employees and more than 400 family farmers. Together, we are caring for and transforming the Amazon region.
