Fuel Forward: The Digest’s 2019 Enhanced Multi-Slide Guide to Renewable Energy Group

C.J. Warner: As you can see on Slide 6, we have added capacity year-over-year mostly through continuous improvement. Specifically, you can see that Geismar has been a significant driver of this track record. Since 2016, we have increased Geismar’s effective capacity by 45 million gallons. This was accomplished through increasing the effectiveness of our pretreatment process by 31%, extending the time between turnarounds by 33%, and improving both reliability and throughput capacity. The increased capacity has boosted our efficiency, and we believe the production economics of our renewable diesel operations are comparable to those of our domestic renewable diesel peers.
