August 4, 2023 [Engine]- Dutch storage terminal operator Vopak says it has received a first cargo of renewable diesel to store in recently repurposed tanks in Los Angeles.

Last November, the company announced plans to repurpose 22 bunker fuel storage tanks in Los Angeles for sustainable aviation fuel and renewable diesel.

A total of 148,000 cbm of marine fuel storage capacity was repurposed.

Renewable diesel is mostly consumed by vehicles in Los Angeles and the rest of California, but also by domestic vessels that qualify for rebated biofuels.
