Growing domestic soybean processing means growing opportunities for American agriculture and renewable fuels.
As U.S. #soybean crush capacity expands, more demand is shifting closer to home, boosting domestic processing and increasing the supply of soybean oil used to produce #biodiesel and #renewablediesel.
In this @AllAgAllDay News article, Clean Fuels' Vice President of Federal Affairs, @kovarikdc, shares insight into how these investments keep additional soybean value inside the U.S.

Clean Fuels' Director of Public Affairs and Federal Communications, @PaulWinters, sat down with Randy Ellington on Building It Talk about how much of a #soybean bushel ends up in fuel - about 10% of every bushel. That's real demand for Midwest growers, and it's one reason #biodiesel and #renewablediesel matter beyond the pump.

In a new article for @bdigest, Clean Fuels Alliance America CEO @donnell_rehagen explains how the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) is helping increase domestic diesel supplies, support investment in U.S. production capacity and deliver competitively priced fuels.
Read how #biodiesel and #renewablediesel are helping strengthen America’s energy supply and why maintaining a strong #RFS matters for consumers and our nation’s economy.

Clean Fuels welcomes EPA’s proposal to reallocate 2025 small refinery exemptions, helping protect the historic Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) volumes finalized earlier this year. We appreciate @EPA Administrator, @epaleezeldin's effort to keep the #RFS volumes on track and to release this proposal earlier than promised.
The proposal is an important step toward preserving the market certainty that drives investment in American agriculture, expands domestic #biodiesel and #renewablediesel production, creates #jobs and helps provide lower-cost diesel fuel options.
We urge EPA to finalize supplemental volumes for both 2026 and 2027 to maintain momentum and ensure the benefits of a strong RFS reach farmers, producers and consumers.

Today, and every day, we’re grateful for America’s #farmers.
Their hard work, dedication and stewardship keep our communities thriving and our nation fed and fueled.
This National Farmer's Day, Clean Fuels proudly recognizes and thanks the farmers who make so much possible. Thank you for all you do to feed the country, fuel the country and power what’s next.

“American farmers produce the highest-quality crops in the world, and they deserve strong domestic processing capacity and reliable markets for what they grow. The CHS project joins a growing list of investments that helps demonstrate this Administration’s strong support for biofuels.”
That’s the message delivered by USDA Deputy Secretary Stephen Vaden @DepSecVaden at yesterday’s groundbreaking for @CHS Inc .’s new soybean processing facility in Evansville, Wisconsin. A message that resonates strongly with Clean Fuels.
Congratulations to Clean Fuels Member CHS on this major investment in American agriculture and domestic renewable fuels. The approximately $700 million facility is expected to process 80 million bushels of #soybeans annually, 60% more bushels than were grown in Wisconsin last year - producing roughly 1 billion pounds of soybean oil and 2 million tons of soybean meal.
For renewable fuels, that means more domestically produced soybean oil available to meet growing demand for #biodiesel and #renewablediesel, while expanding markets for farmers, strengthening domestic supply chains and supporting rural economic growth.

A stronger #RFS. Record production. Growing demand. More investment in American agriculture.
Together, that’s what we helped achieve in 2026.
The Clean Fuels’ 2026 Annual Report captures a year of meaningful progress for clean fuels and our members who power this industry.
From securing the strongest Renewable Fuel Standard volumes in the program’s history to advancing policy, strengthening markets, supporting innovation and demonstrating the environmental value of #biodiesel, #renewablediesel and #SAF, this report highlights what’s possible when our industry speaks with a strong, collective voice.
Explore the 2026 Annual Report and see what we accomplished together—and what’s ahead in 2027.

American agriculture and clean fuels belong in the conversation about our energy and climate future.
At Climate Week NYC, Veronica Bradley, Director of Environmental Science, brought that perspective to discussions on #45Z, @USDA's low-carbon feedstock provisions, #ILUC, carbon accounting and the sustainability of crop-based fuels.
Her message: Science-based policies should recognize the important role #farmers and #cleanfuels can play in reducing emissions and strengthening America’s energy future.
We’re grateful for the opportunity to be part of the conversation, challenge assumptions and build a cleaner future together.

The Better. Cleaner. Now! Podcast continues the conversation with Chelsey Robinson, Director of Stakeholder Affairs, Bioeconomy & Sustainable Ag Systems at @Bayer4CropsUS, and Veronica Bradley, Director of Environmental Science at Clean Fuels.
In this episode, they explore the future of biomass-based diesel and the opportunity to expand the feedstock supply with oilseeds such as camelina and winter canola. The conversation highlights how these intermediate oilseeds can help support lower-carbon fuels, advance agricultural innovation, and create new economic and environmental opportunities for farmers.
