| Technology Brief |
The planned renewable diesel production process will utilize “blue hydrogen”, which is produced from natural gas with carbon capture and storage (CCS). Production of blue hydrogen has been shown to have substantially reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions compared to conventionally produced hydrogen.
Approximately 500 000 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) are expected to be captured each year utilizing CCS. The blue hydrogen and biofeedstock will be combined with a proprietary catalyst to produce premium low-carbon diesel fuel.

| Additional Information |
The Strathcona renewable diesel project is part of ExxonMobil’s plans to provide more than 40 000 barrels per day of low-emissions fuels by 2025. In the US, the company has agreed to purchase up to 5 million barrels of renewable diesel annually from Global Clean Energy to supply markets in California (CA).
