Rolls-Royce Funds African D1 Biodiesel Refinery

22 February 2005

D1 Oils, (earlier post) the rapidly globally expanding UK biofuel refiner, has agreed to terms with Rolls-Royce to finance a D1 20 refinery in Durban, South Africa.

The D1 20 modular biodiesel refinery (at right), is designed to produce 8 million liters per year of biodiesel (some 2.1 million gallons US) with 90% utilization.

The new Durban refinery should be built and operational by 3Q of this year.

Under the financing arrangement, Rolls-Royce will provide a $1 million loan over four years to D1 at preferential rates of interest.

D1 also recently announced the formation of a joint venture for the production of biodiesel in Saudi Arabia (earlier post) as well as other partnerships in India and Madagascar.

Rather than taking the approach of building large, centrally-located biodiesel refineries, D1 uses a more modular approach.

The D1 20 refineries are about the size of a large shipping container, and they can be used in remote sites. Accordingly, D1 has focused on acquiring rights to large swaths of land in Southeast Asia, Africa and India on which to grow jatropha plants as a feedstock.

D1 went public on the AIM (London) last year. With the recent news, its share price has begun a steep climb. (Chart at right.)

Many People seems to be asking about the Project cost

Let me Explain .. National Bio-Diesel Mission is among three Scales

1. Small Scale worth 2 - 5 Lakhs i.e Plantation of JATROPHA PLANTS on commercial scale.

2. Medium scale worth of 5-10 Lakhs in which we can offer commercial plantation + facility of Extraction of Oil from seeds + Manufacturing of Bio-Diesel through Pilot Plant (small capacity)

3. Large Scale : This large scale project of Commercial Production of Bio-Diesel just like a Refinery of Bio-Diesel. This Project Cost worth 10 - 40 Cr.

I think this is sufficient for you all to decide on which scale you wanna work .. ..

Dear Sir,
We are an Agri-horticulture company based in Bangladesh. We are now interested in the cultivation of Jatropha-curcus and extraction of bio-diesel and it’s by-products and for this purpose we have procured 5500 acres/2000 hectares (approx) of land in Bangladesh. This land is located near the chittagong Port, the only sea-port of Bangladesh, thus making transport of goods easier & cheaper.

What we are looking from our joint-venture partners are as follows:
a) Good quality high-yielding seeds of jatropha.
b) Seed preservation Technology
c) Extraction technology for bio-diesel & it’s by-products
d) Packaging Technology.
e) Waste-Management Technology.
f) Buy-back Agreement.
g) Financial support required.

If this interests you, please let us know at our earliest, so that we can arrange for your site visit and assessment of other techno-financial possibilities.
As this project must
Kick-start before the onset of monsoon (In Bangladesh it starts in June) we must discuss the modalities immediately providing the plan interests you.
It is hoped that we will receive an early & positive reply from your end.
Looking forward to a long & healthy business relationship.

Thanking you in anticipation

Yours sincerely,

Anindya Chowdhury.

I would appreciate all information that anyone could give me on growing jatropha and producing biofuel, I am interested in setting up a coop.
Thank you very much

Biodiesel/jatropha investors wanted - To date I am the biggest plantation owner in all Mozambique. I have had tremendous interest from local and national government. The reason government is so interested is because nobody else in Mozambique is further down the line with Jatropha. In another project I am also first in the country - this is another very important plus for Jatropha and commercial farmers. I have implemented a scheme whereby I distribute Jatropha seedling to local (up to 75 kms away) people. I also pay them a small amount over a year for each tree that is well looked after and of course agree to buy seed from them. This project has been approved for funding by a branch of Swedish aid.

I did go and present a whole Jatropha presentation to The president. All this again points to the hopes that government are putting on Jatropha and biodiesel. Should this Jatropha/bio diesel thing all go as planned we now have a huge opportunity to go for an irrigated sugar cane/ethanol setup on the lake shore.

Hallo,
I am a graduate in Natural Resources Management. Now biodiesel is the energy for future indeed if the this plant can grow in these very harsh environmental conditions. Example is Kenya my country where 70% of the total land area is either arid and semi arid and in which the only viable economic activity is pastoral nomadism.
Please advice me on how these vast lands can be utilised for maximum economic benefit for society and as solution to the energy crisis.

Without being overstated, PPI’ s approach to the R8 was to retain the standard series design, with the addition of PPI developed aerodynamics. All PPI aerodynamics for the R8 are made of carbon fibre. This material is commonly used in motor sports reducing general weight yet simultaneously increasing sturdiness. This material is already featured in the Audi base model. PPI consequently takes a further step applying carbon fibre as the main component with highest quality for its entire car body material. ...
