Biofuels and Clean Fuels

Karbone’s full service structuring and brokerage practices cover not only green credits, but also the underlying commodities from which these assets are derived. Primary among these physical green commodities are biofuels, including biomass, biogas, and bioliquids. These biofuels represent the direct, sustainable equivalents of traditional fossil fuels—coal, natural gas and oil. In this way, Karbone’s biofuels brokerage initiatives are helping to drive the green fuel-switch that forms a fundamental part of the new energy economy.

Adding Value through Logistical Support and Financial Acumen

The growing market for biofuels is particularly constrained by logistical concerns and financial challenges. Potential suppliers of wood pellets, wood chips, biomass fuelstock, biogas, and biodiesel face infrastructural hurdles in transportation and storage, while facility developers struggle with capital shortfalls due to heavy processing or upgrade expenses.

To overcome these obstacles, Karbone is committed to adding logistical support and financial acumen to the biofuels sectors. With a dedicated team of brokers outfitted with a wide network of logistical contacts and competencies, and by bringing a unique combination of financial creativity and access to capital markets, Karbone helps bridge the gap between suppliers and end-users of sustainable biofuels.
