Hawaiian authorities have approved Pacific Biodiesel Technologies' (PBT) contract to supply biodiesel to Hawaiian Energy to use at their power plants on the island of O'ahu.
The contract was approved after both parties agreed on the price of biodiesel. The diesel will be produced locally and would contribute to the local economy. The fuel will be produced from waste cooking oil and other local waste feedstock.
PBT will supply 2 to 3 million gallons of biodiesel annually to Hawaiian Energy. The contract with REG is set to end in November as the new PBT contract comes into effect.
