A quantity of 3 000 tons of pellets (produced from granulated sunflower seeds shells) is donated by the vegetable oil factories of Trans-Oil Group in the Republic of Moldova, “Floarea Soarelui” S.A. (Bălți, Republic of Moldova) and “Trans Oil Refinery” S.R.L. (Ceadîr-Lunga, Republic of Moldova), to the public institutions of the Republic of Moldova.

The donation will contribute to covering the bio-fuel shortage for 85 public institutions of the Republic of Moldova during the current heating season.

On February 27, 2023, the Commission for Emergency Situations of the Republic of Moldova decided to exempt the delivery of 3 000 tons of granulated sunflower seed shells (pellets) from VAT, with the right to deduct.

The Commission stated that this decision will support the achievement of the national policy objectives in the field of energy efficiency and the promotion of the use of the renewable energy sources.
