Biofuels

World population is increasing and developing economies are modernizing. This translates into a growing demand for energy from all available sources.

Cellulose-based biofuels can fill an important role in diversifying the nation’s energy sources by providing a source of low-carbon transportation fuel.

Catchlight Energy

Catchlight Energy’s vision is to become a major integrated producer of biofuels derived from non-food sources and to deliver renewable transportation products produced from biomass in a manner that is scalable and sustainable — both environmentally and economically.

By focusing on researching and commercializing technology, Catchlight Energy can help our nation make the move to the next generation of biofuels.

Chevron and Weyerhaeuser

Catchlight Energy brings together two leaders in their respective industries and leverages the strengths of both.

Catchlight Energy unites Weyerhaeuser’s expertise in innovative land stewardship, resource management and capacity to deliver sustainable cellulose-based feedstocks at scale with Chevron’s technology capabilities in molecular conversion, product engineering, advanced fuel manufacturing and fuels distribution.
