Moving forward, robust investments in biofuels and other infrastructure will allow Canada to remain competitive in the global clean energy market, reduce reliance on imports, and ensure the sustainability and security of our fuel supply. This is a critical moment for our policymakers to act, leveraging Canada’s liquid fuels sector to support long-term economic and environmental benefits for Canada.

A spotlight on collaboration: CFA and the Canadian Oilseed Processors Association are working hand in hand to boost the renewable fuels market in Canada. As demand for renewable fuels rises, canola-based biofuels are proving vital, with an economic impact of nearly $1.4 billion annually since 2021. This collaboration strengthens the renewable fuels market and benefits the entire value chain — from farmers to fuel producers.

Last April, @WestJet announced a significant milestone: the purchase of the first sustainable aviation fuel supplied in Canada by CFA member @Shell, through its aviation division, Shell Aviation. The SAF acquired from Shell Aviation is blended with conventional jet fuel to meet all certification and safety requirements, while requiring no new investments in aircraft engines, fuel infrastructure, or distribution processes.

CFA member, @ParklandCorp is set to expand its co-processing capacity at the Burnaby refinery by 2028. As the first refinery in North America to co-process bio-feedstock alongside crude oil, Parkland is taking important steps toward low-carbon fuel production. Plans are in place to increase capacity from approximately 2,000 barrels per day to 7,500 barrels per day, all while ensuring that final products require no changes to fuel distribution systems or consumer behavior.

Silicon Ranch has officially launched the Scotford Solar Farm, which is now in commercial operation as of August 2024. This 58-megawatt facility is expected to supply around 20% of CFA member @Shell's Scotford refinery’s electricity needs over the next 25 years. At peak capacity, it can provide 100% of the refinery’s energy requirements. An important step towards integrating renewable energy in industrial operations.

At day 2 of the @ScalingUpBio | #ScalingUpBio, CFA's President and CEO, @bob_larocque moderated an insightful panel featuring Michelle Belisle from @ImperialOil and Chris Vervaet from the Canadian Oilseed Processors Association. Bob discussed the growing clean fuel markets, the importance of credits, how Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is used in measuring carbon intensity and how these metrics play a key role in both regulatory compliance and unlocking incentives. #CleanFuel #Sustainability #ScalingUp #LCA #CleanEnergy #Innovation #FutureOfFuel
