Navigating Portland’s 50% Renewable Diesel Mandate: Prices, Supply, and Market Strategy

Effective July 1, 2026, the City of Portland, Oregon will launch a policy that could redraw the map for the West Coast biofuels market. The Portland Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) will mandate that all diesel fuel sold within the city must contain at least 50% renewable diesel or biodiesel.

This webinar is your guide to this new requirement. While we will touch on its interaction with the broader Oregon Clean Fuels Program (CFP), our primary focus will be on the practical implications of the city-specific mandate. Join OPIS experts to understand how to prepare for this potential market shift.

Key Topics This Webinar Will Cover:

• The Portland RFS Deep Dive: An overview of the mandate’s mechanics and an assessment of the supply chain’s ability to meet this requirement. 
• The Oregon CFP Connection: Understanding how compliance with the Portland RFS interacts with the statewide Oregon Clean Fuels Program. 
• Market Price Impacts:  How the Portland RFS could affect supply patterns, differentials, and market dynamics for diesel and renewable diesel, based on publicly available data and OPIS methodology.
• Credit Price Outlook: An overview of Oregon CFP credit price trends  and OPIS’s analysis of market fundamentals driving credit valuations. 

Don’t miss this policy and research briefing that will change the fuel landscape not only in Portland, but in Oregon.
