Brazil's state-run firm, Petrobras, is making strides in the development of low carbon projects by announcing the construction of its first pilot plant to produce renewable hydrogen at the Vale do Açu thermoelectric power plant in Rio Grande do Norte state. The project, in collaboration with the Senai institute and WEG, aims to generate hydrogen through the electrolysis of water using solar energy. The produced hydrogen will be utilized for power generation and research on blending it with natural gas. Additionally, Petrobras is working on initiatives like R5 diesel with vegetable oil, sustainable aviation fuel production, carbon capture projects, and offshore wind energy. Despite facing obstacles like energy oversupply and regulatory challenges, the company is committed to investing in renewable energies and transitioning towards a more sustainable energy mix.
