TruAlt Bioenergy, one of India’s largest biofuel and bioenergy companies, has secured a ethanol order valued at over Rs 390 crore from leading Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) such as Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited, Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited, Indian Oil Corporation Limited, and Mangalore Refineries and Ports Limited. This order involves supplying nearly 6 crore liters of 1G Bioethanol over a three-month period from August to October 2024. TruAlt Bioenergy has secured approximately 10 per cent of the total allocated quantity, representing a strong supply commitment to all OMCs, reported PTI.
This significant order follows a competitive tendering process organized by the OMCs, where TruAlt Bioenergy emerged as a consistent and reliable supplier. Holding the highest market share by production capacity at 3.7%, TruAlt Bioenergy continues to set benchmarks in the bioenergy sector.
Vijay Nirani, Founder and Managing Director of TruAlt Bioenergy, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “Our journey began with the National Biofuels Policy and the Ethanol Blended Petrol (EBP) Program of India to address the nation’s need to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and crude oil by shifting to biofuels, the more ecological and economical alternative. Under the visionary leadership of our Honorable Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi Ji, India has made remarkable progress in the bioenergy space. We are honored to be significant contributors to this success journey. I firmly believe that this is just the tip of the iceberg, and the entire biofuels sector has massive potential.”
