Aemetis Sells $18 Million in Section 45Z Clean Fuel Tax Credits
Aemetis announced that its ethanol and renewable natural gas subsidiaries received funds from the sale of $18 million in Section 45Z Clean Fuel Production Tax Credits, covering 2025 ethanol output and year-to-date 2026 ethanol and RNG production. Net cash proceeds came to roughly $14.5 million after transaction costs.
Company leadership called it the firm’s second and third 45Z transaction in six months and pointed to planned RNG volume growth and efficiency gains at its Keyes facility as reasons the credit’s value could keep climbing through the year.
