New Leaf Biofuel
2285 Newton Ave, San Diego, California, United States

New Leaf has been producing high-quality biodiesel to the California market for nearly a decade. With a carbon intensity (CI) score of 15.86, our fuel is one of the lowest carbon fuels for compliance obligations.  Global transformation starts with our local community. We work with local restaurants to ensure clean, reliable cooking oil recycling and grease trap services.

NEW LEAF RECYCLES USED COOKING OIL INTO HIGH-QUALITY BIODIESEL. OUR BIODIESEL IS USED IN PLACE OF PETROLEUM DIESEL, REDUCING CARBON EMISSIONS AND IMPROVING AIR QUALITY.

The process begins with used cooking oil collected from local restaurants which is brought back to our San Diego plant where operators work 24/7 to manufacture the oil into high-quality biodiesel fuel. The fuel is then sold to distributors who blend the product with diesel and deliver to customers throughout Southern California. Biodiesel directly displaces diesel fuel usage, thus reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 80%—allowing us all to breathe a little easier! 

MISSION STATEMENT: 

New Leaf Biofuel is committed to inspiring global transformation by promoting healthy growth & sustainability within our community by partnering with local restaurants to produce premium biodiesel from recycled cooking oil & supply this and other sustainably-sourced renewable fuel throughout the region.

These jobs come with top-notch benefits, both for the employees and their families, helping them live happy and healthy lives.  Our biofuel reduces greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80%. This reduction has profound impacts both on a global and local scale. Globally, lower greenhouse gases means lower risks of devastating consequences of climate change such as rising sea levels and more frequent natural disasters. Locally, it means lower asthma and cancer rates, and preserving our beautiful San Diego skyline. By using cleaner fuel, our children and grandchildren will get to experience clean, fresh air – an idea that everyone can get behind.
