Global Bioenergies is a French company producing light liquid hydrocarbons derived from agricultural products using biological methods.
[3] Created in the Évry Génopole Biocluster in the Essonne department in France, Global Bioenergies operated a demo plant in the ARD (Agro-industrie Recherche et Développements) research and development structure BioDemo pilot in Pomacle-Bazancourt.
[7] The bacteria involved in the transformation process carry artificial enzymatic material developed through genetic engineering.
It is the only company in the world to have designed a conversion method for renewable resources (residual sugars, agricultural and forestry waste) into isobutene.
[8] Global Bioenergies subsequently agreed a partnership with Audi to produce fuel from the same elementary building blocks as plants (water, hydrogen, carbon dioxide and day light).
