We are MDC
We operate in the energy sector, with a focus on biomethane and natural gas, contributing to the energy transition agenda.
At MDC, we dedicate our energy to developing sustainable businesses.
Pioneers in biomethane production and the expansion of natural gas across Brazil.
One of MDC’s key differentiators is its regulatory and commercial expertise in complex renewable energy projects.
Since 2006, MDC has been committed to providing sustainable energy solutions to its clients.
We are at the forefront of the low-carbon economy, working with energy sources such as natural gas – a transition fuel with a lower carbon footprint – and biomethane, one of the most sustainable biofuels on the market. Through the integrated operations of three subsidiaries – CDGN, Ecometano, and ERB – we offer a broad portfolio of long-term sustainable energy solutions to corporate clients undergoing the energy transition. We are the right partner to support your business in implementing sustainable energy projects aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
The Company's business model is based on developing partnerships with stakeholders who own sources of raw materials, such as landfills, biodigesters, composting facilities, and mature wells. With strong engineering and business teams, MDC creates value for these partners by utilizing waste from their operations to produce biomethane and commercialize natural gas.
All of the company’s business is developed based on the sustainability tripod – economic, social-environmental, and governance. Through the integration of our business lines, MDC is able to offer low-carbon fuel solutions that are competitive in price and customized to client needs.
Our business lines contribute to the energy transition.
