As an emerging SAF producer with its flagship New Rise Reno facility in Nevada and a planned New Rise Reno 2 expansion, the company’s announcements often focus on project milestones, financing plans, and collaborations intended to scale low‑carbon fuels.
Recent press releases highlight development progress at New Rise Reno 2, where XCF Global reports completing initial site work and advancing engineering and design for a second SAF facility adjacent to its existing plant.

Additional MOUs with IP3 Corporation, Southern, and DevvStream describe a framework to evaluate pairing small modular reactor nuclear power with electro‑sustainable aviation fuel (eSAF) production and digital environmental‑asset structures.
Distribution and global reach also feature prominently. XCF Global has reported an MOU with BGN INT US LLC to explore a global distribution and logistics partnership for SAF, renewable diesel, and renewable naphtha across regions including Europe and the Middle East. The company has further disclosed a binding term sheet with New Rise Australia Pty. Ltd. for an exclusive licensing and development partnership focused on SAF and renewable diesel facilities in Australia.

The Reno facility began commercial operations March 2025 and has produced more than 2.5 million gallons of renewable fuels. New Rise is completing a planned upgrade focused on operating stability, equipment readiness, fuel quality systems and start-up procedures, and XCF is targeting a return to operations in June 2026, subject to completion of upgrade activities and standard start-up steps. A Form 8-K with the agreement form was filed today.
XCF Global (Nasdaq:SAFX) said its New Rise Renewables Reno facility holds CORSIA-ready sustainability certification as of April 30, 2026, with chain-of-custody, mass-balance and Proof of Sustainability documentation already in place. The facility is completing upgrades and expects to resume production in June 2026.
Certification and traceability systems position XCF to supply CORSIA-eligible SAF documentation and support airline and corporate reporting, including book-and-claim participation, when operations restart.
XCF Global (Nasdaq:SAFX) flagged EPA's final 2026-2027 Renewable Fuel Standard volumes: 25.82B RINs for 2026 (vs. 22.33B in 2025, +15.6%) and 25.98B for 2027. EPA also reported adjusted totals of 26.81B (2026) and 27.02B (2027), the highest levels in program history. XCF estimates D4 RINs add ~$3.06 incremental value per gallon of synthetic blending component (SBC) to SAF economics as of April 27, 2026, and notes RIN prices remain market-based and can vary day to day.
XCF Global (NASDAQ:SAFX) highlighted the strategic importance of its licensing agreement with New Rise Australia to enable modular domestic SAF production in Australia. Asia‑Pacific jet fuel benchmark prices surged roughly 155% from about $85–$90 to ~$230 per barrel in late Feb–early Mar 2026, stressing import dependence.
The modular SAF model is pitched to increase supply resilience by locating scaled plants near airports and feedstock, with initial project planning, reference design confirmation, and front‑end scoping completed for a proposed Perth facility.
XCF Global (NASDAQ:SAFX) highlighted differences between volatile global crude oil benchmarks and U.S. waste‑based renewable feedstocks used for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). Brent crude showed intra‑month swings in April 2026, while distillers corn oil (DCO) pricing is described as being driven by U.S. supply‑and‑demand fundamentals such as ethanol production and corn crush volumes. XCF says its SAF uses domestic waste feedstocks, not crude, and that USDA data showed DCO strength in late 2025 into 2026. The release frames these factors as potential benefits for supply security and price predictability for airlines and fuel buyers.
