Villa Montes biofuel plant operational delays
Overview
In Villa Montes, a regional audit has initiated scrutiny of the macororó oil extraction and additive plant. Although the construction company reports approximately 99% physical progress and 70% financial execution, the facility remains paralyzed.
The project, designed to process raw materials such as macororó and jatropha for biodiesel production, is currently facing operational challenges and controversy regarding unpaid debts to the contractor, estimated at approximately Bs 20 million. The plant was intended to support a national strategy to industrialize raw materials and reduce fuel imports.
