It supplies Minneapolis–St. Paul International Airport (MSP) and is a key part of Delta's strategy to increase SAF adoption and achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, supporting its goal for SAF to constitute 10% of its fuel use by 2030.

The facility underscores Minnesota's role in advancing sustainable aviation by establishing a major SAF blending infrastructure at the Pine Bend Refinery to serve MSP, positioning the state as a regional hub for clean aviation fuel production and distribution.
