Zeng Shu Fei, the Founder and CEO of KH Marque, is a visionary environmentalist dedicated to transforming waste into renewable energy and driving the world toward Net Zero. Under her leadership, KH Marque has become Southeast Asia’s largest Used Cooking Oil (UCO) collector, pioneering sustainable waste-to-energy solutions.

A strong advocate for decarbonization and circular economy principles, Zeng’s mission is to redefine sustainability through innovation, traceability, and responsible resource management. She spearheaded the development of proprietary UCO purification technology, increasing yield from 80% to 99.5%, significantly reducing carbon emissions in the biofuel supply chain.

Her leadership has propelled KH Marque’s expansion across 11 countries, forming strategic partnerships with global energy leaders such as Phillips 66, BP, Repsol, Chevron, Mitsubishi, and Petronas. She introduced cutting-edge digital tracking systems, including the UCO ECO Tracker software, which enables real-time tracking of UCO shipments and carbon intensity calculations, setting new industry benchmarks for traceability and environmental accountability.

Zeng’s impact extends beyond business growth—her initiatives have diverted thousands of tons of waste oil from landfills, prevented pollution, and contributed to the aviation sector’s shift to Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF).

Her commitment to innovation, ethical leadership, and sustainability makes her a trailblazer in the fight against climate change, inspiring industries and communities to embrace a regenerative future.
