Renewable Energy Group signed a contract to supply biofuel processed from waste oil to Hawaiian Electric’s Campbell generating station.

Hawaiian Electric selected Renewable Energy Group (REG) to supply biodiesel for Hawaiian Electric’s 110-MW combustion turbine generator at Campbell Industrial Park Generating Station, the first utility-scale combustion turbine that runs entirely on biodiesel. REG already supplies biodiesel to the generating station, and under the new contract—subject to state regulatory review—will continue supplying 3 to 7 million gallons of fuel each year for three additional years. REG’s biodiesel is processed from used cooking oil and waste animal fats.
