Arva has announced the expansion of its biofuels offering to support producers as they operationalize the 45Z Clean Fuel Production Credit. The new audit-ready infrastructure provides turnkey 45Z administration, including direct coordination with accounting firms, GREET-based CI scoring validation, and digital traceability to prevent double-counting and ensure credit integrity.

Why it matters

As fuel value becomes more directly tied to feedstock Carbon Intensity (CI), biofuel producers face growing pressure to source sufficient volumes of low-CI feedstocks while ensuring CI claims are defensible under audit. Arva's platform aims to help producers maximize the value of the 45Z credit by reducing audit risk and providing access to verified low-carbon feedstocks.

The details

Arva's 45Z infrastructure delivers turnkey administration tailored to producer operations, including direct coordination with accounting firms on feedstock submissions. The platform provides audit-ready CI scoring using GREET-based modeling, as well as digital traceability from field to facility to prevent double-counting. Arva also offers live supply mapping of low-CI feedstocks to support procurement, contracting, and operational planning.
