The Potential of Renewable Diesel

by Carrie Song (Neste/NGT News) ... There have been arguments suggesting that renewable liquid fuels are just the bridging solutions before all the vehicles and equipment transition to electric or hydrogen. However, recently a number of car giants have made changes to their all electric fleets plan – this shows that there’s no silver bullet to tackle the GHG emissions issue. A solution that works perfectly for one industry may not work for another. To make a meaningful climate impact, it’s important to adopt the best available technologies and act immediately.

According to a recent research from the Energy Technology Forum, for the largest commercial vehicles, the internal combustion engine (ICE) is predicted to be the power source for 75% of the new vehicles. The staying power of advanced ICE is even more pronounced in heavy-duty off-road applications in agriculture, construction, marine, rail and power generation.

At the moment, no batteries or hydrogen fueled vehicles can deliver the same endurance and strong performance that ICE engines are currently capable of.  Renewable diesel is a perfect solution for these heavy-duty applications to immediately reduce their GHG emissions.

Renewable diesel’s boom  

Our company began producing renewable diesel in the early 2000s and has observed how this solution has matured and is now endorsed by the heavy-duty sectors. Today, the majority of renewable diesel in the U.S. is consumed on the West Coast, where producers can take advantage of RIN credits from the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) program and the Blender Tax Credit, along with state-level LCFS-style programs in California, Oregon and Washington. 

Over time, continued technology development and increased supply will continue to accelerate renewable fuel adoption. However, for producers, long-term, stable incentive programs are key to maintain renewable fuels’ momentum and phase out the use of fossil fuels. 

In addition to government support, the private sector can do its part to create synergies that foster renewable fuel procurement and generate more public awareness of the benefits related to renewable diesel, so more businesses can get to know, adopt and endorse this lower-emission solution. 

Meeting future demand

There are several different technology pathways to produce renewable diesel. Currently, hydrotreating is the most common pathway used by commercial fuel producers, with animal fats, used cooking oil, and greases being the most common raw materials.

Research from World Economic Forum and McKinsey suggests that up to 40 million tons of waste and residue materials annually can be available for renewable fuel production by 2030. However, this is not sufficient to meet long-term forecasted demand.

As a result, producers are continuing to work toward increasing the availability of these renewable raw materials while also developing technologies to diversify supply with new scalable materials, such as algae and novel vegetable oils produced by regenerative farming practices. These raw materials can play a crucial role in meeting the growing global demand for renewable products. 

...

Our company has been exploring different regenerative agricultural concepts for several years and is currently conducting over 60 field trials in several regions with a variety of crops to identify most promising concepts for scale-up. Each project is carefully assessed in terms of its impact on soil health, carbon sequestration potential and GHG emissions savings, biodiversity promotion, and economic viability.

We have set a target to increase the availability of novel vegetable oils to reach 20% of our raw material pool by 2035. We are also looking at ways to reuse waste plastics and power to X and hope to commercialize some of these solutions in the 2030s. 

The development of these raw materials require partners and larger ecosystems for innovation, development and commercialization. 

Continue to grow the momentum 

Beyond the U.S. West Coast, it has been interesting to watch other states begin to contemplate LCFS-style programs throughout the country. New Mexico just passed its clean fuel standard this year, and we have seen more than a dozen states file similar legislation, from New Jersey and Massachusetts to Michigan and Minnesota, and Hawaii to round out the West Coast corridor. 

Collaboration through the entire value chain is also crucial to keep the momentum growing – from producers to end users, each party in the energy ecosystem has a role to play, from researching and piloting novel raw materials to investing in these technologies, and to endorsing and adopting lower-emission solutions like renewable diesel.  READ MORE

QUOTE OF THE WEEK --- Todd Brix

If you capture one ton of CO2 from the air or a flue gas stack and bury it, you’ve removed one ton of CO2 from the atmosphere. If, however, you convert that one ton of captured CO2 to make one ton of product that is otherwise made from fossil fuels, which emits seven tons of CO2, you’ve avoided seven tons of CO2 emissions, not just one ton. -- Todd Brix, OCOchem's CEO   READ MORE

California Governor Puts E15 in the Fast Lane

by Cindy Zimmerman (Energy.AgWired.com)  California Governor Gavin Newsom on Friday gave a surprise boost to the ethanol industry by issuing a directive to the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to accelerate studying how California could increase ethanol blending in gasoline to allow the sales of E15.

“There’s massive potential for this to be a win-win for Californians: lowering gas prices by up to twenty cents per gallon while keeping our air clean. It builds on our efforts to keep gas prices low by holding Big Oil accountable and helping prevent price spikes at the pump,” said Newsom.

The Renewable Fuels Association immediately praised Gov. Newsom for taking this action since California is the only state in the country that bans the sale of lower-cost, lower-carbon E15. “Not only does E15 reduce greenhouse gas emissions and harmful tailpipe pollution, but it also delivers significant savings at the pump,” said RFA President and CEO Geoff Cooper. “Allowing the sale of E15 would provide economic relief to California families, while at the same time providing important environmental benefits.”

Gov. Newson cited a recent study conducted by the University of California, Berkeley and the United States Naval Academy, showing that just allowing the sale of E15 could lower gas prices in California by up to $0.20 per gallon and save Californians as much as $2.7 billion annually. That study was sponsored by the Renewable Fuel Association. “Consumers would save about $200 per household there,” said RFA Chief Economist Scott Richman who contributed to the study. “And it would be low income households that would benefit the most from this.”

Excerpt from Renewable Fuels Association:  The Renewable Fuels Association today applauded California Gov. Gavin Newsom for directing the state’s Air Resources Board (CARB) to expedite the approval of E15, gasoline containing 15 percent ethanol. California is the only state in the country that doesn’t currently allow the sale of lower-cost, lower-carbon E15.

In a letter to CARB Chair Liane Randolph today, Gov. Newsom wrote, “Given the potential for allowing E15 gasoline to increase fuel supply and reduce gasoline prices, with little to no environmental harm, it is prudent for CARB to prioritize resources that would allow for the expeditious completion of this process. Therefore, I am directing CARB to accelerate its action on this critical issue.”

In a related news release, Newsom stated, “There’s massive potential for this to be a win-win for Californians: lowering gas prices by up to twenty cents per gallon while keeping our air clean. It builds on our efforts to keep gas prices low by holding Big Oil accountable and helping prevent price spikes at the pump.”

Gov. Newsom’s letter cited a recent study by economists at the University of California, Berkeley and United States Naval Academy that showed E15 could result in a $0.20 per gallon price decrease for the state’s drivers, saving California families up to $2.7 billion per year.

“We sincerely appreciate Gov. Newsom’s efforts to accelerate the approval of the cleaner, greener E15 fuel blend in California,” said RFA President and CEO Geoff Cooper. “Not only does E15 reduce greenhouse gas emissions and harmful tailpipe pollution, but it also delivers significant savings at the pump. Allowing the sale of E15 would provide economic relief to California families, while at the same time providing important environmental benefits.”

Newsom’s news release also highlights recent vehicle testing from the University of California, Riverside showing that “blending in gasoline would not affect NOx emissions and would reduce particulate emissions.”  READ MORE

 

Excerpt from Office of Governor Gavin Newsom:  Governor Newsom urged CARB to more quickly study the implementation of increased ethanol blending in gasoline, which could help to lower prices by up to $0.20 per gallon and save Californians as much as $2.7 billion every year — with little to no impact on the environment. 

SACRAMENTO – Governor Gavin Newsom today issued a directive to the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to expedite measures that could lead to lower gas prices without compromising environmental protections.

Building on legislation passed in 2023 and 2024 to prevent price spikes and increase transparency in the oil industry, the Governor’s order directs CARB to accelerate studying how California could increase ethanol blending in gasoline (E15), which studies have shown could reduce prices while maintaining environmental protections.

“There’s massive potential for this to be a win-win for Californians: lowering gas prices by up to twenty cents per gallon while keeping our air clean. It builds on our efforts to keep gas prices low by holding Big Oil accountable and helping prevent price spikes at the pump.” -- Governor Gavin Newsom

How it works

According to a study conducted by the University of California, Berkeley and the United States Naval Academy, this could lower gas prices by up to $0.20 per gallon and save Californians as much as $2.7 billion annually, but also would require strategic considerations regarding market structure and infrastructure modifications.

E15 fuel, which contains 15% ethanol, has been widely adopted in other states and could significantly reduce prices without adding environmental harm. As of 2023, E15 was sold at more than 3,000 stations in 31 states.

Another study from the University of California, Riverside found that increasing ethanol blending in gasoline would not affect NOx emissions and would reduce particulate emissions.

Keeping gas prices low & holding Big Oil accountable

Last week, Governor Newsom signed legislation that allows the state to require oil refiners to maintain a minimum inventory of fuel to avoid supply shortages that create higher gasoline prices for consumers and higher profits for the industry. It also authorizes the California Energy Commission to require refiners to plan for resupply during refiner maintenance outages. It will help prevent price spikes that cost Californians upwards of $2 billion last year.

Following gasoline price spikes in 2022, Governor Newsom called for a special session and worked in partnership with the Legislature to sign into law a package of reforms holding Big Oil accountable

California’s new watchdog found that higher gasoline prices were caused by a suspicious market transaction, refinery maintenance without properly preparing for it, and more. 

In January of this year, the watchdog sent Governor Newsom and the legislature a letter outlining specific proposals to reform California’s gasoline spot market, which included a minimum inventory requirement to prevent price spikes due to lack of stable supply.

The state’s gasoline price watchdog also found that, in 2023, gasoline prices spiked largely due to refineries going offline without adequately planning to backfill supplies, which caused refining margins to spike as spot and retail prices jumped — indicating that refinery margins made up the largest proportion of the price spikes between July and September 2023.  READ MORE

 

Excerpt from MidValley Times:  Consumer Reports writes that “the EPA says E15 can be used in flexible-fuel vehicles, as well as 2001 and newer cars, light-duty trucks and medium-duty SUVs. Don’t use E15 in motorcycles or other small engines, heavy-duty trucks, or nonroad vehicles such as boats and snowmobiles.”

Oil analyst Tom Kloza has written that it “looks like CA governor Newsom will look to accelerate car approval of E15 gasoline blends. OPIS (Oil Price Information Service) data shows ethanol to be about $.40 per gallon beneath CARBOB (California Reformulated Gasoline Blendstock for Oxygenate Blending) so the move makes economic sense.” CARBOB gas from the refineries for use in California is mixed with ethanol at the terminal racks before the finished blend shows up at your local station.  READ MORE
