en.Wedoany.com Reported - Usina São José da Estiva has obtained the Green Energy Certification Label (Selo Energia Verde), which recognizes production units that generate electricity using renewable fuels from the sugar-energy industry and meet energy efficiency and sustainability standards.

The certification is a joint initiative by the Brazilian Sugarcane Industry Association (UNICA – União da Indústria de Cana-de-Açúcar e Bioenergia) and the Electric Energy Trading Chamber (CCEE – Câmara de Comercialização de Energia Elétrica), which manages electricity trading and financial settlement in Brazil. Launched in 2015, the label is Brazil's first electricity certification specifically for sugarcane biomass power generation, aimed at encouraging the use of renewable energy and expanding the share of bioelectricity in the national energy mix.

Environmental expert Rodrigo Facca stated that joining this initiative reflects the company's commitment to developing a cleaner and more sustainable energy structure in Brazil.

The certification is valid until the end of 2026. By then, the Estiva Sugar Mill is expected to generate slightly over 168,500 MWh of electricity, of which approximately 91,000 MWh will be supplied to the national power system, with the remainder used for the company's own consumption.

Industrial Manager André Gatto said that this certification more clearly demonstrates that the Estiva Sugar Mill prioritizes sustainability, social responsibility, and ethics in all its operations. He noted that the label enhances the company's competitiveness in the ESG market, strengthens its institutional reputation in the energy transition, and represents a victory for everyone.

Roberto Holland Filho, General Manager of the Estiva Sugar Mill, believes that the Green Energy Certification is a valuable achievement that reaffirms the company's commitment to responsible production with low environmental impact. For the Estiva Sugar Mill, this recognition is a natural outcome for a business built on renewable energy.
