The Carbon Zero 1 plant will combine low-carbon feedstocks with renewable hydrogen, produced via gasification of woody biomass waste that is otherwise combusted, to produce low-carbon fuels. Located in Riverbank, California, the plant has a planned capacity of 45 million gallons per year of renewable jet and diesel fuel.

By utilizing hydroelectricity with carbon sequestration and negative carbon intensity hydrogen, the plant is expected to produce among the lowest carbon intensity renewable fuels in the world. These can be used in airplane, truck and ship fleets without engine modifications being needed.

We will provide FEED services, including the project's cost estimate. Our scope includes feedstock handling, biomass gasification, hydrogen production and purification, hydrotreating of vegetable oils (HVO), and supporting systems and utilities. This phase of the project is expected to be completed by late 2021.

The services will be executed by Worley's US West offices, with support from our Global Integrated Delivery team.

'Delivering a more sustainable future for our customers is at the core of everything we do. Working with Aemetis and Koch Project Solutions on this project reinforces our commitment to helping our customers navigate the energy transition, while also underpinning our position and industry leadership in low-carbon fuels.' said Karen Sobel, Group President, Americas at Worley.
