New Rise Renewables inaugurates SAF facility in Reno-Tahoe area

In Nevada, New Rise Renewables announced the inauguration of its new 3200 barrel-per-day renewable sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) facility located at the Reno-Tahoe Industrial Complex in Storey County, Nevada. This facility, situated on a 10-acre parcel at 611 Peru Drive, McCarran NV 89436, is nearly through the conversion of its existing renewable diesel plant as part of a groundbreaking effort to revolutionize the aviation industry by producing sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).

Scheduled to commence SAF production in the summer of 2024, New Rise Renewables’ facility is designed to play a pivotal role in reducing carbon emissions from the aviation sector, offering an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional fossil-based jet fuels. As the demand for sustainable aviation fuel continues to rise, estimating the need for over 3 billion gallons per year by 2030, New Rise Renewables is committed to decarbonizing the aviation industry while supporting American agriculture.
