China Integrated Energy, Inc., a leading non-state-owned integrated energy company in the People's Republic of China, has announced that it has commenced construction of a new biodiesel production facility adjacent to its existing biodiesel production facility in Tongchuan City, Shaanxi Province.
The new production facility is expected to add 50,000 tons to China Integrated Energy's annual biodiesel production capacity, bringing total capacity to 150,000 tons. Management expects to commence production by the third quarter of 2010 and anticipates $15 million in capital expenditures to accomplish this goal.
"Based on the growing market demand for our biodiesel fuel supported by the government's effort to increase renewable energy consumption to 15% of China's total energy consumption in 2020, we are optimistic that our increased capacity will be rapidly absorbed by the Chinese energy market," stated Mr. Gao Xincheng, Chief Executive Officer of China Integrated Energy. "The new facility will be an integral part of our growth for 2010 in our efforts to meet our revenue and net income targets."
China Integrated Energy, Inc. currently operates a 100,000-ton biodiesel production plant located in Tongchuan City, Shaanxi Province. The Company also operates three oil extraction plants that are located near fields where a substantial amount of non-edible oil seeds, one of the primary feedstocks for our biodiesel production, are harvested. Management believes they are one of the largest biodiesel producers in China measured by production capacity as of the end of 2008, and the only non-state-owned integrated biodiesel producer with a distribution license. China Integrated Energy leverages their own wholesale distribution channels to sell biodiesel to existing customers. The Company's biodiesel can be blended with regular petro-diesel and used by existing diesel engines with no change in engine performance.
