The Mid Atlantic Biodiesel (MAB) plant will produce biodiesel from multiple feedstocks. Biodiesel is an attractive fuel for the US market with the rapidly rising cost of petroleum-based diesel, tightening clean air standards, and concern about the nation’s increasing reliance on imported oil. The strong partners associated with the plant - along with an attractive market environment - make the MAB project a compelling investment opportunity as well as an economic and environmental plus for the region.
