Diamond Green Diesel Receives Approval to Begin Construction in Port Arthur Texas

28.01.2021 | 12:30 Uhr | PR Newswire
DGD's total annual capacity of Renewable Diesel expected to increase to 1.2 billion gallons upon completion

IRVING Texas and SAN ANTONIO, Jan. 28, 2021 - Darling Ingredients Inc. (NYSE:DAR) ("Darling") & Valero Energy Corp. (NYSE:VLO) ("Valero") -

Darling and Valero jointly announce today that their 50/50 joint venture, Diamond Green Diesel ("DGD"), has received approval from both companies' Boards of Directors to proceed with the construction of the renewable diesel production facility to be located at Valero's Port Arthur, Texas refinery.

DGD Port Arthur's capacity is estimated to be 470 million gallons per year of renewable diesel. This new plant is anticipated to commence operations in the second half of 2023. Once operational, and when combined with the increased capacity at the Norco, LA facility (currently 290 million gallons annually with an anticipated increase of 400 million gallons due to be operational later this year), DGD's total annual production capacity is expected to be approximately 1.2 billion gallons of renewable diesel and 50 million gallons of renewable naphtha. The current estimated construction cost is $1.45 billion to be split equally between the joint venture partners and funded from internal cash flows provided by DGD.

"The Board of Directors of Darling Ingredients is pleased to be moving forward with the construction of DGD at Port Arthur," said Randall C. Stuewe Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Darling Ingredients. "The project is moving forward immediately and we fully plan to utilize the first mover advantage DGD has in North America as we believe Darling's vertical integration coupled with Valero's refining expertise are key to providing low carbon feedstocks to the DGD renewable diesel platform."

"We expect low-carbon fuel policies to continue to expand globally and drive demand for renewable fuels," said Joe Gorder, Valero Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, "and to that end, we are applying our liquid fuels expertise to continue to expand our long-term competitive advantage in low-carbon transportation fuels with the expansion of DGD."
