In Colorado, Avfuel Corporation said it is expanding its sustainable aviation fuel footprint with the addition of a new, strategic supply point in Denver, Colorado.
“We continue to see interest in SAF adoption,” said C.R. Sincock, II, Avfuel’s executive vice president. “Avfuel is proud to have established the first SAF supply point in this region, significantly enhancing our national supply infrastructure and leading the way in providing sustainable solutions for aviation operations.”
This latest supply point is made possible by Avfuel’s agreement with Valero Marketing and Supply Company (Valero), a subsidiary of Valero Energy Corporation. The neat SAF produced by Diamond Green Diesel LLC, a joint venture between a Valero affiliate and an affiliate of Darling Ingredients, is made using the HEFA SPK pathway process, meaning it uses lipids—like used cooking oil—to produce the fuel, and can lower lifecycle GHG emissions by up to 80% when compared to conventional jet fuel, said Avfuel.
