Global Partners launches Connecticut’s first renewable diesel service

This marks the fifth terminal location in the north-east which currently offers the alternative fuel.

Global Partners is making renewable diesel available at the East Haven terminal, the first time this eco-friendly fuel has been accessible in Connecticut.

This launch is a significant advancement in the company’s diverse fuel options for customers looking to reduce their environmental impact. In addition, the offering also contributes for the state to achieve its climate goals.

“Offering renewable diesel to our commercial customers underscores the importance of supporting sustainable practices and reducing carbon footprints,” said John McCusker, Global Partners vice-president of wholesale marketing.

The company introduced renewable diesel to its north-east terminal assets over a year ago and has since become one of the largest suppliers of renewable diesel in the Northeast.

Renewable diesel matches the specifications of petroleum diesel and is compatible with current diesel engines and storage tanks without any modifications

Global Partners’ offering of renewable diesel in East Haven marks the fifth terminal location in the north-east where it has made the cleaner fuel available for distribution to customers.
