Sustainability
Clean BioFuels Without Depending on Precious Food Sources
Cielo’s strategic intent is to be a leader in the wood by-product-to-fuels industry. To support this objective, we will operate pursuant to the environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria by which socially conscious investors assess potential opportunities.
Our business model addresses the growing problem of discarded railway ties and other wood by-products, while also aiming to meet the growing demand for cleaner bio-fuel, without using a food derived feedstock. Cielo is poised to start generating high-demand transportation fuels that are produced with minimal environmental impact that can help support cleaner modes of global transportation.
