    UPM is a biofore company that produces renewable diesel from wood-based raw materials at its biorefinery in Lappeenranta, Finland. The biorefinery has an annual production capacity of 100,000 tons of renewable diesel from crude tall oil, a residue of the pulping process. UPM's renewable diesel, called UPM BioVerno, is a drop-in fuel that is compatible with current diesel engines and reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 80% compared to fossil diesel. UPM aims to expand its biofuels business and grow revenues to over 1 billion euros annually by developing new technologies and raw materials.
