REG’s bio-based diesel is easy to adopt and immediately begins
reducing fossil carbon emissions. Under the new arrangement, REG’s
UltraClean BlenD™, a proprietary blend of biodiesel and renewable
diesel, and other fuels from REG’s EnDura Fuels™ product line, will
be available to customers via CFN and Pacific Pride’s vast cardlock
network. CFN and Pacific Pride operate cardlocks in a number of
regions across the U.S. and Canada.
“We continue to provide our Marketers with the tools and
products they need to adapt to a changing marketplace,” stated CFN
and Pacific Pride President, Eric Lind. “Our alliance with
Renewable Energy Group will position our networks for the future by
ensuring we have the products available to meet the needs of the
growing biofuels market.”
For REG, this opens up new customer opportunities through a
larger geographic footprint, and allows the business to provide
bio-based diesel directly to end users. The businesses are
committed to continuing to provide customers with the quality and
service they expect, with an expanded offering of cleaner fuel
options.
“This collaboration exemplifies what we want to do at REG: work
with industry leading companies and help guide customers during the
energy transition by enabling them with access to clean fuel
alternatives,” said Bob Kenyon, Senior Vice President, Sales and
Marketing at REG. “Our cleaner fuels and customer service are
helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions today and offer a
plug-and-play solution for most fleets across North America.”
The organizations hope to begin expanding availability of
bio-based diesel later this year, initially focused on cardlocks on
the West Coast. Renewable Energy Group’s technical services team
will support the implementation, ensuring customers are receiving
the best products for their region and season.
