Portugal, Brazil seek Brazilian investors for sustainable fuel plants in Europe

July 21, 2026 |

In Brazil, Brazil Energy Insight reported that Portugal and Brazil are seeking to attract Brazilian investors to build one or two advanced biofuel and sustainable aviation fuel ​plants in Portugal.

Portugal’s energy minister Maria da Graca Carvalho said she would discuss the project — which targets both the domestic and European markets — when meeting her Brazilian counterpart in Brasilia next week.

According to Carvalho, it ​aims to leverage Brazil’s expertise in biofuels and Portugal’s position as ​a gateway to Europe to meet rising demand for low-carbon fuels.

“Brazil has been a leader for many years and has significant technological expertise in  advanced biofuels and SAF, and we want to offer the conditions in ​Portugal to set up one or two plants to produce these fuels,” Carvalho said.
