BP Plc will evaluate expanding and diversifying its biofuel operation in Brazil, looking at new products such as second-generation ethanol and sustainable aviation fuel after buying out Bunge from their joint venture BP Bunge Bioenergia. The company said in written comments to Reuters that it wants to use the venture's massive biofuel base in Brazil - an industrial complex with 11 plants in five states processing sugarcane - to develop key projects to support the broader BP view for bioenergy. The Brazil complex "is a scalable bioenergy platform with cost advantages," it said.
LONDON (Reuters) -BP has agreed to buy grain trader Bunge's 50% stake in Brazilian sugar and ethanol joint venture BP Bunge Bioenergia for $1.4 billion in a bet on growing demand for low-carbon biofuels. Following the completion of the deal, expected by end-2024, BP will take full ownership of Bioenergia which has production capacity of around 50,000 barrels a day of ethanol equivalent from sugarcane. BP will consolidate Bioenergia's debt and lease obligations of $1.2 billion, it said, meaning it will pay out a total of $800 million to Bunge, according to Reuters calculations.
