In recent years, Petro has been lowering carbon emissions, and helping customers do it, too, by delivering Bioheat®, a blend of renewable biodiesel and ultra-low sulfur heating oil and more eco-friendly alternative to traditional heating fuel and natural gas.
In 2023, our Bioheat® fuel helped remove 170,431 metric tons of carbon emissions, and to date in 2024, we have helped remove 248,440 metric tons of carbon emissions from the atmosphere . That’s the equivalent of eliminating the carbon emissions of 2,730 round trip flights from Boston to London or 49,668 cars driving 22 miles per gallon annually.
By delivering Bioheat® to more customers in more markets we look to increase the number of customers who realize all the benefits of using it to keep their homes comfortable all year round:
By 2030, Petro is committed to a net-zero carbon emission goal. This means that by then, all customers will be heating their homes and businesses with a fuel that is cleaner and more renewable than both natural gas and electricity.
By choosing Bioheat®, you’re making a choice that’s both good for you and the environment. Let’s continue working together towards a greener future.
