Brazilian state-owned energy firm Petrobras is testing Cardano's blockchain for two low-carbon fuel tracking initiatives. The projects, built with the Cardano Foundation and PUC-Rio researchers, cover sustainable aviation fuel and Petrobras's renewable Diesel R product. Both remain in the research and development phase rather than a commercial rollout. The blockchain records environmental benefit origins, recipients and claim times to prevent double counting of emissions benefits.

Key points

  1. Petrobras is testing Cardano's blockchain for two low-carbon fuel tracking initiatives.
  2. The projects cover sustainable aviation fuel and Petrobras's renewable Diesel R product.
  3. The blockchain records benefit origins, recipients and claim times to prevent emissions double counting.
  4. Both initiatives remain in research and development rather than a commercial rollout.

Why it matters

The projects show large corporations exploring public blockchains for cross-organizational supply chain and environmental data verification. They follow a recent Brazilian financial firm's test of the XRP Ledger for fund record verification.
