The Phillips 66 Rodeo Renewable Energy Complex in the San Francisco Bay area is now operating at full capacity. In 2022, the fuel producer made the decision to begin the process to irreversibly convert it from processing fossil fuels.

Two years after it began, the permanent conversion of Phillips 66's San Francisco Bay-area refinery from handling crude oil to producing renewable fuels is now complete. Known as the Rodeo Renewable Energy Complex, the plant has reached full output capacity of 50,000 barrels of renewable diesel and/or sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) a day.

The facility includes new pre-treatment units to process feedstocks such as used cooking oil, fats, and greases. It became operational in March with an output of 30,000 barrels of renewable fuel a day.
