XCF Global Inc. announced Aug. 11 sales of renewable diesel from its New Rise Renewables Reno facility to Tartan Oil LLC, a subsidiary of Pilot.
The sales activity represents what XCF Global said it believes is an important step in its transition from production to revenue-generating commercial operations at New Rise Renewables Reno.
The fuel is expected to support Tartan’s renewable fuels offering for commercial customers, and XCF Global said it believes it may help expand access to lower-carbon fuel options for fleets operating in hard-to-decarbonize segments of road transportation.
The company said New Rise Renewables Reno expects deliveries to continue and intends to increase volumes as production progresses toward its nameplate capacity of 38 million gallons per year.
“We believe these sales represent an important step in demonstrating the commercial role of New Rise Renewables Reno,” said XCF CEO Chris Cooper.
“Tartan plays an important role in serving commercial fleets across North America, and renewable diesel is a practical, drop-in substitute for fossil diesel that is a lower-carbon fuel and works in existing diesel engines and infrastructure,” Cooper added. “We are proud to support the transportation industry’s transition to lower-carbon fuels by helping expand access to renewable diesel for commercial fleets.”
As previously announced, New Rise Renewables Reno began producing renewable fuels in July following a period of upgrade work, and XCF Global executed a definitive commercial framework with BGN in July covering feedstock supply, production, logistics and commercialization.
XCF said sales under that framework underscore the potential role of downstream distribution partners in helping renewable fuels reach commercial transportation customers.
