The Company

Greenlight Biofuels produces clean burning biodiesel made from domestic resources. Biodiesel is a 100% renewable and biodegradable fuel derived from vegetable or animal oils and can be used in diesel engines without modification.

Greenlight Biofuels, Inc. was founded by Greenlight Energy Resources, Inc. to develop, build, own and operate biofuel facilities in North America. Greenlight Biofuels is headquartered in Charlottesville, Virginia. The company broke ground on its first biodiesel production facility in Princess Anne, Maryland in January 2007. The facility will begin commercial operation by year end.

Greenlight Energy Resources, Inc. was formed by the principals of the Greenlight Energy, Inc. (GEI) following the sale of their wind energy company to BP Alternative Energy North America, Inc (Press Release). At the time of the sale in 2006, GEI was one of the largest independent wind energy companies in the country with a 6,000 MW development pipeline comprised of large-scale wind energy projects in 15 states. By year-end 2007, over $700 million of wind energy facilities developed by GEI will be operational, including a $500 million facility in Colorado being completed this year by BP.

With an experienced management team and a strong record in renewable energy, Greenlight Biofuels is well-positioned to participate in the growth of the biofuels industry.
