At DCC Propane, we are committed to offering cleaner and more sustainable energy solutions to meet your transportation needs. One of the most exciting advancements in this area is the adoption of Renewable Diesel, a fuel designed to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of your fleet without sacrificing performance.
WHAT IS RENEWABLE DIESEL?
Unlike traditional fossil diesel, renewable diesel is made from renewable resources, such as used cooking oils, animal fats, and other waste products. It is not the same as biodiesel; rather, renewable diesel is chemically identical to fossil diesel but much better for the environment. The end result is a fuel that can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 75% over its life cycle*, making it a vital part of reducing our dependence on fossil fuels.

Why choose renewable diesel from DCC Propane?
Our renewable diesel is produced from
sustainable resources, which reduces the release of new carbon into the atmosphere. By choosing renewable diesel, you are taking an important step toward a more sustainable energy future.
Not only does renewable diesel reduce carbon emissions, but it also results in lower levels of fine particles (33%), nitrogen oxides (9%), hydrocarbons (30%), and carbon monoxide (24%)*. This helps to improve air quality, making it a cleaner alternative to traditional diesel fuels.
Switching to renewable diesel is as easy as refueling. It’s a drop-in fuel, meaning it is fully compatible with your existing fuel storage and transportation infrastructure. You won’t need to make any modifications to your vehicles or fuel storage systems, saving time and money in the transition.
With a high cetane number (over 70), renewable diesel ensures efficient combustion, resulting in powerful performance. It’s also
suitable for extreme weather conditions, with a cold weather performance rating down to -4°F for winter grades. Whether it’s hot or cold, renewable diesel is designed to deliver the same level of power and reliability you’ve come to expect from traditional fuels.
Our renewable diesel is cleaner, which can lead to lower maintenance costs for your fleet. Unlike other alternative fuels, it doesn’t contain sulfur or oxygen, reducing wear and tear on your engine and fuel system. This results in fewer maintenance needs and potentially lower operating costs over time.
