“United as One” is the theme of the inaugural Clean Fuels Conference, January 23-26, 2023 in Tampa, Florida where the role of biodiesel, renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel in the national commitment to decarbonization will take center stage

Formerly the National Biodiesel Conference & Expo, the event’s rebranding reflects the founding organization’s name change last year from the National Biodiesel Board to Clean Fuels Alliance America, recognizing the evolution and expansion of the clean fuels offerings for heavy-duty transportation and new markets like rail, shipping and aviation. “We look forward to this show because we have a lot of new stakeholders,” said Brad Shimmens, Clean Fuels’ Director of Operations and Membership. “So we have a very exciting line up of speakers and sessions to include the whole industry that we represent.”

Shimmens says highlights of the conference include the return of the popular diesel vehicle Ride-and-Drive and a mainstage session putting the spotlight on the Department of Energy’s Clean Cities program. Event organizers are hoping to attract more sustainability and environmental social governance professionals this year who as well as representatives from new clean fuels markets including marine, rail and airline industry professionals.
