The terminal, as per the agreement, will offer REG-9000 biodiesel to petroleum wholesalers or to large fleets beginning August 2012.
REG’s vice president of sales & marketing Gary Haer remarked that biodiesel was a sustainable drop-in alternative for California, which according to some estimates consumes over 3.5bn gallons of distillate fuel in 2010.
"This new terminal will help consumers in the Los Angeles region become more energy independent, meet carbon reduction goals and improve air quality with America’s Advanced Biofuel, biodiesel," added Haer.
The biodiesel produced also entered into an agreement to offer its fuels at a terminal near Lebanon, Ohio and at its own terminal in Clovis, New Mexico.
"We have confidence in the team at Maxum to quickly and efficiently process orders and load trucks to make biodiesel blending an easy step for any diesel distributor in the area," concluded Haer.
