Imperial (IMO) Plans Canada's Largest Renewable Diesel Plant
Read MoreHide Full Article
Imperial Oil Ltd. (IMO - Free Report) has recently announced that it will proceed with a C$720 million project to construct a renewable diesel plant at its Strathcona refinery near Edmonton.
The largest renewable diesel project is expected to create about 600 direct construction jobs and start renewable gas production in 2025. According to Imperial, it also intends to use renewable diesel in operations as part of its emission reduction plans.
An estimated 20,000 barrels of renewable diesel would be produced per day, as officially announced in August 2021. According to the company, a sizable amount of the production will be shipped to British Columbia to aid that province's carbon emission reduction strategy.
The project is presently anticipated to produce more than 20,000 barrels of renewable diesel per day or 1 billion litres annually. When compared with conventional fuels, renewable diesel has the potential to reduce annual greenhouse gas emissions by around 3 million tons. This is the project's key goal.
