U.S. capacity for renewable diesel and associated fuels expanded by more than 5% between Jan. 1, 2025, and Jan. 1, 2026, according to data released by the U.S. Energy Information Administration on Sept. 24.

We're off and running for the Iowa Biodiesel Regional Annual Meeting in Ankeny, IA! We thank Sen. Dan Dawson and @IowaAgSec Mike Naig for visiting with us. "Biodiesel isn't only good for Iowa's ag economy; it's good for Iowa's entire economy," Naig said.

Construction began this week on @CHSInc's new soybean processing facility near Evansville, WI. ASA CEO Stephen Censky attended the groundbreaking, pictured here with representatives from CHS’s soybean processing division, Jason Marthaler & Tony Roelofs.

Clean Fuels Director of Outreach and Development Tom Verry (@FriedRide) was recognized by @B20Club with the 2026 Biodiesel Legacy Award.
With nearly 30 years in the #biodiesel industry, Tom has played a key role in building relationships between soybean growers, fuel producers and end users, while securing funding to grow markets for #cleanfuels.
A well-deserved honor for a career dedicated to strengthening partnerships and creating new opportunities for biodiesel.

A stronger #RFS. Record production. Growing demand. More investment in American agriculture.
Together, that’s what we helped achieve in 2026.
The Clean Fuels’ 2026 Annual Report captures a year of meaningful progress for clean fuels and our members who power this industry.
From securing the strongest Renewable Fuel Standard volumes in the program’s history to advancing policy, strengthening markets, supporting innovation and demonstrating the environmental value of #biodiesel, #renewablediesel and #SAF, this report highlights what’s possible when our industry speaks with a strong, collective voice.
Explore the 2026 Annual Report and see what we accomplished together—and what’s ahead in 2027.

Community college students, we’re looking for a few more students to round out our Soy Squad program! 👀
Soy Squad is a free program for Iowa college students to meet farmer leaders, learn more about the soybean industry and connect with ag professionals. It’s also a great addition to any ag resume!

Partially funded by the soybean checkoff.

Clean Fuels thanks Sens. @ChuckGrassley and @amyklobuchar for introducing bipartisan legislation to extend the Small Agri-Biodiesel Producer Credit through 2029.
“Small biodiesel producers support rural economies, creating good-paying local jobs and investing in growth opportunities. Right now they are a critical source of lower-cost distillate fuels that can give farmers relief from prices at the pump – and a higher-value return on this year’s soybean harvest.” - @kovarikdc
The credit has been a lifeline for small producers over the last year, helping them secure feedstocks and ramp up production to meet current demand as they await final rules on 45Z. bit.ly/4yHaIjj

U.S. soybean crush continues to gain momentum. New @USDA data show processors crushed 221.9 million bushels in July, the highest monthly total since March and 8.2% above July 2025. Domestic soybean crush has now exceeded year-ago levels for 17 consecutive months, reflecting continued investment in U.S. processing capacity and stronger markets for American farmers thanks to the #RFS.
More crush means more homegrown feedstocks for clean fuels.
According to the latest @EIAgov data, clean fuel production used 1.55 billion pounds of soybean oil in June alone. That’s nearly as much soybean oil as the industry used during the entire first year of the Renewable Fuel Standard in 2005.

The executive committees of Clean Fuels and @ASA_Soybeans came together at the @FPShow in Boone, Iowa, this week to discuss a shared priority: growing demand for American-grown feedstocks to support the expanding markets for #biodiesel, #renewablediesel and #SAF.
Strong partnerships across agriculture and #cleanfuels are essential to advancing our common interests. By bringing industry leaders together, we can identify opportunities, build on our shared strengths and work together to create new markets and opportunities for American farmers.
We appreciate the collaboration and support of our industry partners and the opportunity to connect with farmers throughout the week.

🎙️ The Better. Cleaner. Now! Podcast is back and we're excited to continue the conversation as @donnell_rehagen and @BiodieselTech (Scott Fenwick) are joined by Nate Green @JohnDeere to discuss Deere's B30 demonstration project and what it means for the future of higher biodiesel blends.
They also explore what's behind the industry's record growth, expanding opportunities for #biodiesel in agriculture and why policy certainty, fuel quality and market expansion will be critical to keeping that momentum going.
The Better. Cleaner. Now! Podcast is available the first Wednesday of each month wherever you get your podcasts.

Clean Fuels teamed up with @JohnDeere, @GROWMARK and participating operators for the “Powered by B30” project to demonstrate how 30% #biodiesel blends perform in today's ag and off-road applications.
The results = better performance, reliable quality and reduced emissions. Hear why you should ask your supplier for B30 today: youtu.be/GbqrNDyz6cg?si=3eJz…
Thanks to our members @IowaSoybeans,@IowaBiodiesel, @IowaFuel and @ILSoybean for supporting the project.

Clean Fuels is on the move this week visiting with members and stakeholders during @Nopa_Oilseed's Board Meeting followed by the New York City Congressional Tour.
During the tour, staffers visited @EdwardRMurrowHS to see how they are using 100% biodiesel to heat the building.
The industry continues to actively invest in growing markets for #biodiesel, #renewablediesel and #SAF, supporting crush expansion and opportunity for homegrown feedstocks.

Why does Kevin Scott, Executive Director of @sdsoybean, use B20 on his farm?
It works well in his equipment, and he says it can cost less than petroleum diesel.
Thank you to South Dakota Soybean for having Clean Fuels join last week’s media tour. Reporters got an up-close look at the versatility of the soybean, from soy foam and other innovative products to #biodiesel, #renewablediesel and #SAF.
We’re proud to help share the many ways soybeans are creating value, on the farm and beyond. 🌱🚜

From food, feed and fuel to industrial uses, soybeans are a versatile crop adding value across multiple industries. Last week during @sdsoybean's media tour, Heather Buechter and Jason Brasier got a firsthand look at the many applications driving demand for #soybeans including a stop at #biodiesel distributor Vollan Oil.
The tour provided an opportunity to educate audiences on soy's sustainable impact and the innovation moving the industry forward.

🚌 Back to school means more buses on the road and more opportunities to make every trip better for the communities they serve. #Biodiesel and #renewablediesel can help power school buses with lower emissions and improved air quality.
Because they can be used in existing diesel equipment, fleets can put these #cleanfuels to work today and start making a difference right away. #BetterCleanerNow #USSOY

The #cleanfuels industry has experienced tremendous growth over the last decade, and U.S. agriculture has risen to the challenge to meet demand. Thanks to @EPA's recent approval of @CoverCress oil as a renewable fuel pathway under the #RFS, innovative oilseeds are opening new domestic feedstock opportunities for fuel producers with added benefits for America's #soybean farmers.
