Contributing to the circular economy
Combating climate change forces the world to seek alternative, low-carbon sources of energy and fuel.
About Us
AEG´s mission is to promote technological advancements, which can increase efficiency, reduce costs and meet rapidly changing environmental and social goals.
Our Strategy
Our Business Model is based on scaling up an already proven “breakthrough” Fluid Conversion Technology (patented), which allows for the lowest grade of fats – considered hazardous waste – to be processed not only economically but highly efficiently.
Competitive Edge
Our technology offers many advantages over traditional methods, like reducing conversion time down to minutes rather than hours, allowing AEG to be the lowest cost provider of biodiesel under ASTM standards.
Investing in the Future
For us, sustainability means protecting the environment, providing exceptional value to customers, strengthening our communities, empowering our team, and driving long-term shareholder growth.
