Aemetis, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMTX) is a renewable fuels and biochemicals company focused on the acquisition, development and commercialization of technologies that replace petroleum-based products and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Headquartered in Cupertino, California, Aemetis operates a network of production facilities in the United States and India to supply advanced ethanol, biodiesel, renewable natural gas and other low-carbon intensity fuels to global customers. The company’s mission centers on transforming waste feedstocks—such as orchard and dairy waste—into drop-in replacements for conventional transportation fuels.
The company’s primary production site is located in Keyes, California, where an established ethanol plant processes over 65 million gallons of ethanol per year from locally sourced orchard and food waste sugars. Adjacent to the ethanol facility, Aemetis manages dairy biogas projects that capture and convert methane from manure to renewable natural gas (RNG). These efforts aim to significantly lower the carbon intensity of transportation fuels and agricultural operations. In India, Aemetis owns and operates a biodiesel and refined glycerin plant in Kakinada that uses imported waste oils and fats to produce sustainable aviation fuel precursors and renewable diesel components for the Asia-Pacific market.
Leveraging proprietary technologies and strategic joint ventures, Aemetis has broadened its product lineup to include an array of sustainable fuel solutions. Its patented “Carbon Zero” process integrates renewable hydrogen with captured carbon dioxide to create sustainable aviation fuel and industrial chemicals. The company has also entered long-term offtake agreements with major energy and agricultural companies to distribute its products across the United States, Europe and Asia. Aemetis continues to invest in research partnerships and process enhancements to advance next-generation biofuel performance while meeting stringent regulatory standards.
Founded in 2006 and publicly listed on the NASDAQ in 2011, Aemetis is led by Chairman and CEO Eric A. McAfee, an entrepreneur with decades of experience in clean energy and resource recovery. Under McAfee’s leadership, the company has focused on scaling its technology platforms and expanding its global footprint in renewable energy markets. By targeting low-carbon intensity solutions and leveraging waste feedstocks, Aemetis positions itself at the forefront of the transition toward sustainable transportation and industrial fuels.
