When renewable fuel production begins in early 2024 at the renewed Phillips 66 refinery in Rodeo, California, near San Francisco, it will be impossible to find a drop of crude oil, or conventional gasoline or diesel products at the site. Instead, raw materials such as used cooking oil, fats, greases, and soybean oils will be refined to produce renewable diesel and gasoline, and sustainable jet fuel (SAF).
Phillips 66 Renews Commitment to Sustainable Aviation Fuel
Key Takeaways:
- Phillips 66 is converting its Rodeo, California refinery into the world's largest renewable fuels facility, set to begin production in early 2024.
- The plant will exclusively refine raw materials like used cooking oil, fats, greases, and soybean oils to produce renewable diesel, gasoline, and sustainable jet fuel (SAF), completely eliminating crude oil.
- This project addresses the growing demand for lower-carbon fuels, aligns with Phillips 66's sustainability initiatives, and is projected to create hundreds of green and construction jobs.
