About Biodiesel

Biodiesel is a clean and renewable energy source derived from vegetable oil that can be used in unmodified diesel engines. Biodiesel improves overall engine performance, is 100% compatible with existing diesel vehicles and infrastructure, and has proven reliable in over 50 million miles of road testing. Biodiesel significantly reduces harmful exhaust emissions, which contribute to global warming, is non-toxic at any level, and is the first and only fuel to have passed the Clean Air Act. The United Nations expects biofuels to account for a full 25% of world energy needs by 2025.
