EB-5 Parent Company Aemetis Updates

Aemetis is a part of the climate change solution, by generating sustainable and innovative renewable fuel solutions that benefit communities, restore our environment, and is aligned with the White House goal of achieving real energy independence and commitment to a long-term strategy to spur smart development and adoption of sustainable, homegrown fuels.

Aemetis leads the low-carbon fuels industry by building a "circular bioeconomy" utilizing agricultural waste to produce advanced renewable fuels that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality.​

Here is an image from the Aemetis website that summarizes their business of refining low carbon to carbon negative biofuels from feedstock that would otherwise be generating pollution. They describe this as a "circular bioeconomy" model.

It is obvious that Aemetis is not like other biofuel companies, they are not reliant on feedstock that could otherwise be food.


Rather, Aemetis is taking agricultural waste that would otherwise put methane and CO2 into the air and refining it to replace fossil fuels. In addition, when their carbon capture site is ready, they will in many cases, be carbon negative.

Biofuels Demand

According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), growth rates for biodiesel in the U.S. are projected to be above 10% through 2030. In Europe and Asia biodiesel growth rates will be higher as both search for energy security and Asia has much of the economic growth in the world.


Please take note of the growth rate because most of the global economy is not growing double digits. In addition, as noted by the EIA, in the U.S., there has developed a refining shortage in the past 3 years.

EB-5 Project Description

The EB-5 project investment is $800,000, the lowest of the two EB-5 investment opportunities. The plant is currently under development in Riverbank, California.
