What happened
EcoCeres has partnered with AstraZeneca to supply Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) for use at its medicines manufacturing facility in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, China. This renewable fuel, which is produced from used cooking oil and verified by the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification, will power the site’s backup generator system.
