Sustainable Oils recently opened a new state-of-the-art facility in Great Falls, Montana (June 2022). The facility works with over 100 U.S. farmers to grow camelina (cam-eh-LEE-nah), a plant used by their parent company Global Clean Energy to produce ultra-low carbon renewable fuels.
Renewable diesel produced from camelina is a drop-in replacement for traditional diesel, but with fewer contaminants and far fewer emissions. The company says camelina has the potential to receive the lowest carbon intensity score of all the available feedstocks on the market today. Sustainable Oils specializes in the breeding, research, and marketing of camelina. They contract directly with farmers in the Northern Plains, High Plains, and Pacific Northwest to grow the camelina that will ultimately get used to create renewable fuel at Global Clean Energy’s refinery in Bakersfield, California. The company looks forward to enhancing economic opportunities for rural communities while producing some of the lowest-carbon renewable fuels in the world.
