Biofuels: reducing carbon intensity across the supply chain
As a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions in the United States, the commercial transportation sector plays a crucial role in creating a lower carbon intensity future.1

Aligned with this goal, supply chain partners from pit to port — including hauler trucks, locomotives, marine vessels, and last-mile delivery trucks — are taking steps to reduce lifecycle carbon emissions within their operations.

Chevron Renewable Energy Group supports the lower carbon energy journey by supplying liquid fuels, such as biofuels, for the transportation supply chain. With top-tier quality, go-to-market agility, lower carbon intensity solutions, and strategic relationships, we enhance visibility for your business.

Biofuels at work in the marine sector
As you explore your lower carbon options, consider the cruise industry as a real-world example of biofuel use. They have significantly reduced their carbon intensity by implementing the use of biofuels, all without affecting their operations.

Benefits of biofuels
Using biofuels can help reduce carbon intensity while keeping operations running smoothly through:

  • fueling infrastructure – Requires little to no changes
  • operations & maintenance – Offers virtually seamless integration and full fuel flexibility
  • engine technology – Biofuels can be used in today's technology and may only need minimal changes in some instances

As biofuels see increased adoption, Chevron Renewable Energy Group continues to invest in making these fuels more accessible and abundant.
