Clean Fuels & CFR Management Services

The Clean Fuels Opportunity

The transition to low-carbon energy is no longer just a regulatory obligation, it is a significant strategic and financial opportunity. Whether you are a fuel producer, an industrial operator capturing emissions, or a fleet manager transitioning to electric vehicles, Canada’s Clean Fuel Regulations (CFR) and other North American clean fuel standards offer lucrative incentives for decarbonization.

ClearBlue Markets provides end-to-end management of clean fuel projects. Our award-winning, cross-functional team helps you navigate complex regulations, establish defensible carbon intensities, and monetize your environmental assets for maximum financial return.

Canada’s CFR is designed to reduce the carbon intensity of fuels by creating market incentives for low-carbon alternatives and emission-reduction projects. ClearBlue helps clients tap into all three CFR compliance categories:

• Emission-Reduction Projects (CC1): Generating credits through projects that reduce the lifecycle carbon intensity of fossil fuels, such as Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR), and low-CI hydrogen integration.

• Low-Carbon-Intensity Fuels (CC2): Producing or importing liquid and gaseous clean fuels, such as ethanol, biodiesel, renewable diesel (HDRD), Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), Renewable Natural Gas (RNG), and biogas.

• End-Use Fuel Switching (CC3): Generating credits by displacing fossil fuels in transportation, such as operating electric vehicle (EV) charging networks or utilizing hydrogen fuel cells.
