Kevin Milburn authored an article on the increased role of renewable diesel to meet the renewable fuels standard (RFS) and the expanding low carbon and fuel standards. The article discusses the production of renewable diesel, how it differs from biodiesel, and the challenges of the growing renewable diesel capacity to meet the mandated transportation fuels carbon intensity reductions of existing and new Low Carbon Fuel Standards (LCFS). The article is the fifth in a series that covers how low carbon policies are impacting the transportation sector and the alternative fuels and pathways being utilized and evaluated by fuel suppliers around the globe to meet the increasingly stringent regulations.
