Propel Introduces Renewable Diesel in California

Propel Fuels has launched Diesel HPR (High Performance Renewable) at locations across Northern California. Propel's Diesel HPR uses Neste Oil's NEXBTL renewable diesel, a low-carbon renewable fuel that meets petroleum diesel specifications for use in diesel engines. Propel will sell Diesel HPR at a price competitive with diesel.
"As California continues to lead the world in clean fuels, we need to insure that the benefits are shared by everyone. Renewable diesel provides significant immediate reductions in emissions that damage our health and change our climate, providing lasting health benefits for the disadvantaged communities that currently suffer the most from petroleum diesel pollution," says Bill Magavern, Policy Director for the Coalition for Clean Air.
