埃尼与莫桑比克合作生产生物燃料农业原料

据油田技术3月2日消息称，埃尼集团与莫桑比克共和国农业和农村发展部(MADER)签署了一项协议，合作开发莫桑比克的农业项目，旨在生产油籽和植物油，用于生产生物燃料的农业原料。

根据协议，埃尼集团和MADER将评估油料种子和植物油生产的潜在地点和最合适的作物，重点放在不会与粮食生产竞争的地区，并考虑到森林和自然生态系统的保护。其他举措包括收集和评估农业和农业加工残留物、副产品和副产物，用于生产生物原料和自然气候解决方案。

该协议建立在埃尼集团和莫桑比克政府于2019年签署的谅解备忘录的基础上，该谅解备忘录旨在联合定义可持续发展和脱碳项目，以支持该国的国家和地方经济和社会发展议程。此外，这也符合埃尼集团加快化石燃料生产国能源转型的承诺，通过旨在生产先进生物燃料的农业企业和工业发展倡议，促进非洲大陆融入生物燃料价值链，帮助运输部门的脱碳和促进发展机会。

Eni, the Republic of Mozambique partner to produce agro-feedstock for biofuels

Eni and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development of the Republic of Mozambique (MADER) signed an agreement for the cooperation and development of agricultural projects in Mozambique, aimed at producing oil seeds and vegetable oils to be used as agro-feedstock for the production of biofuels.

Under the agreement, Eni and MADER will assess potential sites and the most appropriate crops for the production of oil seeds and vegetable oils, focusing on areas that would not compete with food production and taking into consideration the preservation of forests and natural ecosystems. Other initiatives include the collection and valorization of agricultural and agro-processing residues, by-products and co-products, for production of biofeedstock and natural climate solutions.

The agreement builds on the MoU signed in 2019 by Eni and the Government of Mozambique for the joint definition of sustainable development and decarbonization projects to support the country’s national and local economic and social development agenda. Also, it is in line with Eni´s commitments to accelerate the energy transition in fossil fuel producing countries, promoting the integration of the African continent into the biofuel value chain through agribusiness and industrial development initiatives aimed at the production of advanced biofuels, helping the decarbonization of the transport sector and promoting development opportunities.
