Renewables
Developing sustainable energy solutions for communities worldwide.
Sustainable energy solutions.
Renewables are an important part of the energy mix. They have reached an efficiency and scale where they can be used commercially, both in localised and large-scale grid projects. Over time, energy demand will shift from hydrocarbons to power where solar and wind are well placed to compete. To date, Vitol has invested in a range of renewables projects, including wind, solar, and renewable natural gas, and continues to seek opportunities across geographies.
Wind
We are investing in large-scale wind projects in Europe and beyond.
Solar
A growing portfolio in diverse geographies and serving both local communities and wider grid demand.
Biofuel
An active role in the marketing and distribution of both biodiesel and bioethanol, integrating our specialist knowledge with energy supply chains to deliver a broad range of compliant product.
Renewable Natural Gas
We are investing in bio digester projects across the US converting waste to energy.
Wind farm in Ukraine
Our flagship wind farm in southern Ukraine will deliver 500MW of wind, capable of powering more than 780,000 homes.
Case study - Solar colleges
We focus on localised projects of all sizes working with communities and schools in their transition to solar; our solar parking canopy system at Ramapo College, New Jersey can generate 5.1MW of solar energy.
Case study - Biodigester
Our largest biodigester in the US is located in Jerome, Idaho. Integrated into a large diary farm with over 15,000 cows, the biodigester is capable of converting 350,000 tonnes of manure a day into 700mcf of bio-methane and has been operational since October 2019.
Case study - Ben Moreell
The Ben Moreell Solar Farm has been operational since December 2019. It is capable of producing 28.5 MW of power, making it the largest solar plant project in New Jersey.
