Platts to discontinue RD100 Los Angeles, San Francisco premiums from Oct. 1

Platts, part of S&P Global Energy, will discontinue the Renewable Diesel RD100 Los Angeles and San Francisco spreads to NYMEX ULSD and CARB ULSD, effective Oct. 1, 2026.

Platts has seen reduced relevance for the RD100 versus NYMEX ULSD and RD100 versus CARB ULSD premiums. Outright RD100 prices are more often used as a reference price for renewable diesel with credits, such as LCFS and RINs, attached.

The following assessments will be discontinued from Oct. 1:

The assessments are published on fixed pages PB0010, PB0011, PB0012, PBF310 and PBF311, as well as in the Platts Biofuelscan and Biomass-Based Diesel Report.

Platts initially proposed this change on June 11.
