Calumet, Inc. (CLMT) is a specialty hydrocarbons and renewable fuels company that refines and markets specialty hydrocarbon products alongside a developing renewable fuels business. Revenue is generated through the sale of finished specialty petroleum products and, increasingly, through federal clean fuel production tax credits (CFPCs) under Section 45Z of the Internal Revenue Code, as well as through the monetization of Renewable Identification Numbers (RINs) under the EPA's Renewable Fuel Standard.
