ENOIL BIOENERGIES COMPANY PROFILE 2021 ENOIL BIOENERGIES IS CREATING PROFITABLE AND SUSTAINABLE BIOENERGY AND BIOTECHNOLOGY PROJECTS AND IS AN INCUBATOR FOR QUALITY R&D, DEVELOPING PROFITABLE INVESTMENTS. SUSTAINABLE, BANKABLE & PROFITABLE Enoil Bioenergies In a sustainable society, it is very important to raise public awareness. Individuals FROM THE C.E.O. cannot make sustainable choices unless they know what those choices are, and countries will not take direct action to promote sustainable practices unless they receive substantial pressure from citizens. MAURIZIO CAROLDI C.E.O. AND FOUNDER A few generations ago it seemed like the world’s resources were infinite, and people needed only to access them to create businesses to grow humanity. We now know that rather than finding ways to exploit new resources, people and companies need to focus on finding sustainable resources for growth, while protecting the planet and the resources we have left. Enoil Bioenergies is at the forefront. Enoil Bioenergies 3 OUR CORE Enoil Bioenergies SA is a collaboration of minds and companies endeavoring to challenge and transform todays unsustainable demands through science and technology to develop renewable and sustainable business models for future generations. | SUSTAINABLE, BANKABLE & PROFITABLE 02 | FROM THE C.E.O 03 | OUR CORE 04 | INTRODUCTION 06 Contents | THE COMPANY 08 | THE VALUE OF ENOIL BIOENERGIES 09 | EBRL - RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT DIVISION 10 | OUR COMPANIES 12 Table of | OUR TECHNOLOGY 14 | MICROALGAE PRODUCTS 15 | MEGATRENDS 16 | WORLD’S DEMAND 17 | WHY SWITZERLAND? 19 INTRODUCTION production, and investment into associated projects allowing for the strong growth of Enoil Bioenergies. This has been a year of growth and evolution, with completion of our Geneva based production facility, funding completion Enoil Bioenergies and its group of of Enoil’s Algae Plus industrial production companies delivered a very strong financial facility in Valais, and incorporation of R&D performance in 2018 and we are continuing and Solar technology into our portfolio of to make good progress in building world-class companies. investment cases. We have the technologies and Higher consumer demand, resources to reliably produce at least 40% regulatory pressure and environmental need, of our electricity from renewable energy combined with our ongoing work to improve sources within the next 20 years, and 80% by ENOIL BIOENERGIES SA the performance and competitiveness of our 2050.
