Covenant Energy to produce renewable diesel with low carbon footprint
Canada-based Covenant Energy’s new facility is set to produce renewable diesel with a significantly lower carbon footprint than conventional diesel and will thereby support the country’s goal of carbon neutrality by 2050.
Covenant Energy has chosen Topsoe as the facility’s technology provider. Topsoe brings industry-proven technology that will help Covenant Energy meet its projected renewable fuel demand.
“We are very pleased that Covenant Energy has selected Topsoe’s HydroFlex and H2bridge technologies for this state of the art, standalone renewable diesel facility. These market-leading technologies are complementary and together they will provide Covenant with one of the lowest carbon intensity fuels in the world,” said Henrik Rasmussen, managing director, The Americas, Haldor Topsoe Inc.
“Covenant Energy’s goal to produce the cleanest renewable diesel in the world, at Canada’s first of kind production facility, is made possible by Topsoe’s innovative technology. Our renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel will have a competitive advantage under Canada’s Clean Fuel Regulations,” added Josh Gustafson, president and CEO at Covenant Energy.
With HydroFlex, customers can convert low value feedstocks to renewable fuels that qualify for the California Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) credit.
The innovative HydroFlex process layout offers lower capital expenditure (CAPEX), but also a lower energy consumption during operation, resulting in a lower Carbon Index (CI).
Topsoe’s HydroFlex can be deployed in both grassroots units and revamps for co-processing or stand-alone applications.
Topsoe’s H2bridge delivers a circular solution to refineries and biorefineries by replacing fossil feedstocks with renewable LPG or naphtha to produce renewable hydrogen, thereby generating significant greenhouse gas emissions savings and lower the carbon intensity of the renewable fuels produced in the HydroFlex unit.
