Targray, a leading international supplier of renewable fuels and feedstock, announced June 19 an expansion of its vast North American supply and distribution network with the opening of a new biodiesel terminal in the state of Washington.
Located in Mead, an unincorporated suburb of Spokane, the new site is well-positioned to supply high-quality biodiesel fuel and alleviate supply concerns for retailers, distributors, refineries and fleet operators across the state.
Washington has mandated a biodiesel-blending requirement since 2006.
The Clean Fuel Standard is a state-regulated legislation in Washington that requires fuel suppliers to gradually reduce the carbon intensity of transportation fuels to 20 percent below 2017 levels by 2034.
The CFS is part of a plan to cut statewide greenhouse-gas emissions by 4.3 million metric tons a year by 2038.
The market-based policy approach in Washington encourages fuel suppliers to improve efficiencies in their fuel-production processes and provides incentives for producing or blending low-carbon fuels.
Credits are generated for clean fuels containing a carbon intensity below the standard, which can be kept or sold to high-carbon fuel producers who need to meet their carbon-intensity reduction targets.
Supported by a dedicated rail fleet and a terminal network spanning the United States, Targray is committed to providing turnkey biodiesel-supply solutions that enable fuel refineries, retailers, distributors, jobbers and fleet operators to achieve greater profitability while helping create a more sustainable economy for future generations.
Targray is one of the largest and fastest-growing suppliers of renewable fuels and feedstock in North America.
The company’s biodiesel solutions are offered at terminals throughout California, Oregon, Washington and the Upper Midwest.
