Andretti INDYCAR joins Indiana’s B20 Club

INDIANAPOLIS — Andretti INDYCAR has joined the B20 Club of Indiana — a group that supports biodiesel, renewable fuels and sustainable aviation fuel.

The B20 Club is a collaboration between Indiana Soybean Alliance and the American Lung Association.

Brad Banker, manager of team logistics at Andretti, is in charge moving trucks and equipment to the track and back. He’s seen firsthand the benefits of biofuels.

“We added biodiesel about two years ago and it was a seamless transition for us,” he said. “The overall satisfaction level has been 100%.

“I think there are a lot of benefits to using biodiesel — sustainability is most important. We wanted something turnkey, without a whole lot of changes to the units. We were able to put it into our trucks and trailers. We don’t notice any performance difference.”

Alex Moeller, senior director of strategic partnerships at Andretti, said the company cares about sustainability and cleaner air.

“We are thrilled to welcome Andretti INDYCAR as an affiliate member of the B20 Club of Indiana,” said Courtney Kingery, CEO of the Indiana Soybean Alliance.

“Their dedication to supporting the use of biodiesel and renewable diesel aligns perfectly with our efforts to promote sustainable agriculture and reduce carbon emissions. This partnership highlights the significant role that Indiana farmers play in producing renewable fuels.”
