AFS Energy is at the forefront of Europe's efforts to help organizations reach their sustainability objectives. However, our journey has just begun, and the potential for impact is immense.

Who are we?

We are always on a mission to make our ideas, products, and opportunities a top success. Our Energy team consists of a group of ambitious and entrepreneurial advisors, analysts, and traders. We are continuously looking for new products, markets, deal opportunities and advisory services to better support our clients. Within the team Clean Transportation, our focus is on Biogas and Biofuels that play a vital role in decarbonizing the energy sector. Biofuels serve as a renewable alternative to fossil fuels in the EU, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving the EU's security of supply. Member states have a national obligation to blend biofuel into the energy mix for road transport.

In various European countries, the use of biofuel is ensured by varying incentives and schemes. Those that make use of various kinds of biofuels (biodiesel, ethanol, green gas and electricity) can claim biofuel certificates that can be traded on the open market. The team provides our clients with access to financial markets, supply chains, and networks that transcend mere compliance with global laws and regulations, propelling the industry toward a more sustainable future.
