Biofuels: India. Godavari Biorefineries is set to develop its first corn-sugarcane biorefinery in June, located in key corn-growing area northern Karnataka, in an effort to reduce feedstock supply risk. Though more common now in Brazil, it is new to India. Thanks to corn, the facility will be able to produce ethanol year-round instead of being limited to the sugarcane harvest season. With cane pricing policy challenging for sugar millers, having corn as a backstop helps to provide more reliability and lower risk. Link 11/03/2026.

E-fuels: Finland. Norsk e-Fuel and Aurora Infrastructure signed a MoU to cooperate on the development of Norsk e-Fuel’s Project Rauma in Finland. The partnership focuses on the development and construction of the electrical infrastructure such as grid connection and substation required to enable the large-scale production of synthetic, sustainable aviation fuel (e-SAF). Aurora Infrastructure designs, finances, builds, owns, and operates the electrical infrastructure for the planned e-SAF plant. This separation of energy infrastructure from fuel production will allow Norsk e-Fuel to concentrate on its core expertise in developing Power-to-Liquid plants. Link 11/03/2026
