Repsol begins large-scale production of 100% renewable fuels in Puertollano
In Spain, Repsol announced the launch of its second 100% renewable fuel plant on the iberian peninsula, located at its Puertollano industrial complex in Ciudad Real.
The facility has the capacity to produce 200,000 tons per year, in addition to the 250,000 tons of renewable fuels produced annually at the Cartagena plant, Repsol said.
The 200,000 tons of organic-based fuels produced annually at this plant—renewable diesel in this case— can be used immediately in cars, trucks and ships, leveraging existing refueling infrastructure, the firm said.
Antonio Lorenzo, director of Repsol’s Industrial Complex in Puertollano, stated: “The start of production at this plant marks another step forward in Repsol’s commitment to liquid fuels from renewable sources, as well as in the transformation of our complex, with the aim of positioning it as a leading industrial hub in the circular economy and renewable fuels.”
