“Washington State has demonstrated its commitment to sustainability by becoming the latest state to implement a Clean Fuel Standard. Today, Neste is supporting the state’s goal of reducing emissions from the transportation sector by providing renewable diesel to the companies and cities in Washington,” says Carrie Song, vice president, Renewable Road Transportation, Americas at Neste. “We are excited to partner with Coleman Oil; their massive distribution network is crucial for us in making renewable diesel available across the state.”

The partnership is expected to help the state reduce reliance on fossil diesel and make the transportation sector more sustainable.
Made from sustainably sourced, 100% renewable raw materials, Neste MY Renewable Diesel can reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by up to 75% over the fuel’s life cycle, Coleman Oil stated. Additionally, Neste MY Renewable Diesel performs in extreme cold conditions (down to -4 degrees F) and can be stored over long periods of time without deterioration, making it suitable for use in Washington where the average daytime temperatures can range from the upper 30s to around 0 degrees F in winter.
