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.

Renewable Natural Gas

We are investing in bio digester projects across the US converting waste to energy.

CCS

We are a key partner in a large-scale CCS project to decarbonise energy-intensive industries in the north east of England.

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.

Hydrogen

We are investing in blue and green hydrogen technologies for domestic use alongside our CCS project.

A growing portfolio of renewables around the world.

Case study

Wind farm in Ukraine

We are invested in one of Ukraine’s largest wind farms in southern Ukraine which will deliver 500 MW of wind, capable of powering more than 780,000 homes.

Solar colleges

We focus on localised projects of all sizes working with communities and schools in their transition to solar; our solar rooftop and parking canopy system at Ramapo College, New Jersey can generate 5.1 MW of solar energy.

Case study

Humber Zero

An industry-led project to remove up to 8 MT/CO2 annually within the next few years from the Immingham industrial site and create a low carbon future for the region.

Case study

Ben Moreell Solar Farm

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.

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 700 mcf of bio-methane and has been operational since October 2019.

Case study

Vitol Biofuels

Vitol Biofuels is involved in the marketing and distribution of over 250 millions gallons of ethanol from plant producers in the US annually.
