Rick Rutledge, CEO and president of BiAmerican Biomass Energy (BBE), first envisioned creating an alternative energy company in the early 1990s. He created BBE in 2006 as a company dedicated to the production of renewable fuels, with the mission of preserving the environment and freeing our nation from imported energy. BBE has rapidly become known to industry leaders and recognized by leading local businesses as a source for environmentally sound and economically sustainable alternative energy products. Currently those products include bioethanol, biodiesel, and biofuel, and are available to commercial and wholesale enterprises. Production of these products occurs at inter-connected portable facilities, mid-sized satellite plants, and large distribution centers.

Headquartered in the heart of the Salinas Valley on California’s Central Coast, this privately held company is expanding production facilities throughout the state. Currently, production facilities are slated for development in Napa Valley, Riverside, Oxnard, and Castroville, California. Due to the company’s unique formula for creating energy from agri-waste, US expansion plans are targeted towards coastal regions throughout the nation.

BBE's unique formula utilizes the abundance of agri-waste, also referred to as biomass, to create bioethanol, biodiesel, and general biofuel energy products, all while boosting revenue potential by selling additional by-products to specific industries. The production of bioethanol and biodiesel offer consumers alternative energy sources to traditional and increasingly expensive fossil fuels. The company also plans to offer biofuels or blended products, some of which will be developed for hydrogen, and for use in commercial ventures such as generators, heating, and agricultural pumping stations.

BBE offers a sustainable energy source that can be locally produced and managed. The company’s comprehensive production model transforms abundant agri-waste into a powerful source of energy and marketable byproducts. Committed to providing superior customer service, up-to-the-minute industry expertise, and fuel that meets the highest standards of quality, BBE is positioned to become the nation’s leading source of renewable fuels.
