Meet Scott Chabina

Scott Chabina began his career as an investment banker in New York working on mergers and acquisitions, debt and equity capital raises, and financial restructuring assignments of various companies. He worked across a wide range of industries including specialty chemicals, agriculture, consumer products, retail, healthcare, community banking, building materials, aerospace and defense, media, manufacturing and automotive.

In the early and mid-2000s, capitalizing on industry trends and capital market conditions, Scott began to specialize in renewable fuels. At this time, “renewable fuels” was defined primarily as corn ethanol. Today, renewable fuels includes far more complex business models around decarbonization. This can include carbon capture utilization and sequestration (CCUS), renewable natural gas (RNG), renewable diesel (RD), sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), low-carbon ethanol and others—Renewable Fuels 2.0, if you will. Scott’s expertise is throughout each of these dynamic and nuanced sub-sectors, participating across the capital structure and throughout the value chain in these industries as they were actually being created and as they continue to expand.
