Colonial Oil teams with Neste, ICO and Gateway Terminals to supply renewable diesel in Southeast

In Georgia, Colonial Oil Industries, Inc. one of the largest independent oil and gas companies in the United States, announced a partnership with Neste, TICO, and Gateway Terminals in the offering of renewable diesel to customers and businesses in the region, marking a significant stride towards a more sustainable future in the Southeast.

This partnership increases the availability of renewable diesel in the State of Georgia and throughout the Southeast. The renewable diesel will be supplied by Neste, the world’s leading producer of renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel and a forerunner in developing renewable and circular feedstock solutions for polymers and chemicals. Renewable diesel is a lower-carbon alternative to traditional diesel fuel, produced from renewable raw materials such as used cooking oil and animal fat waste. When compared to fossil diesel, the use of renewable diesel significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions over the fuel’s life cycle, making it a crucial player in the global effort to combat climate change.
