West Coast Biodiesel Production

December 11, 2006 · No Comments

Feedstock availability remains a big challenge for west coast biodiesel production. The Sunday Seattle Times ran an interesting article about Imperium Renewables approach (feedstock diversity, deep water port access). See also the accompanying graphic (pdf).

The reporter’s retail cost estimates for biodiesel are way high. Biodiesel is currently selling for between $3.03- $3.20 in Puget Sound. I haven’t seen B99 biodiesel priced above $3.30 (with one exception) , and certainly $3.31 as an average is way off.
