- Companhia Distribuidora de Gás do Rio de Janeiro - CEG stands as a vital energy infrastructure entity in Brazil, dedicated to the provision of natural gas and related services throughout the state of Rio de Janeiro. This long-established enterprise, originally founded in 1854, evolved significantly through its privatization in 1997, ultimately becoming an integral part of Naturgy's (formerly Gas Natural Fenosa) operations in the country. CEG delivers comprehensive natural gas solutions across diverse sectors, including residential, commercial, industrial, thermoelectric power generation, and automotive. Its core offerings include the distribution of piped natural gas, compressed natural gas (CNG), and natural gas for vehicles (NGV). Beyond the direct supply of gas, the company provides essential services such as the development, distribution, and maintenance of gas networks and infrastructure, along with equipment solutions like heaters and various accessories. Serving a wide array of customers, CEG operates across numerous municipalities within the Rio de Janeiro metropolitan area and additional strategic regions of the state. Major ownership in CEG is held by Naturgy, with a substantial equity stake, reinforcing its position as a key energy provider in the region. Looking ahead, the company is actively investigating opportunities to integrate biomethane into its energy portfolio, signifying its commitment to future energy advancements. CEG's current concession agreements are anticipated to conclude within approximately five years, prompting ongoing discussions regarding the future framework of natural gas distribution contracts in the state.
