Neste and New Jersey Natural Gas partnered to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions using Neste MY Renewable Diesel. New Jersey Natural Gas has announced that it will switch its medium-duty trucks and associated equipment to renewable diesel.
New Jersey Natural Gas is now the first natural gas utility on the East Coast to use this cleaner fuel for its fleet operations.
Neste MY Renewable Diesel is made from 100% renewable raw materials and can reduce GHG emissions by up to 75% over its lifecycle compared to fossil diesel. This renewable diesel is compatible with all diesel engines, which means that New Jersey Natural Gas can seamlessly transition to this fuel without the need for new infrastructure or investment in fleet modifications.
Approximately 70 medium-duty trucks in the New Jersey Natural Gas fleet now run on renewable diesel. These vehicles will account for over 57,000 gallons (168 tons) of renewable diesel, which can help reduce GHG emissions by up to 550 tons annually compared to the use of fossil diesel.
According to the EPA Greenhouse Gas Equivalencies Calculator, this is equivalent to the annual direct GHG emissions from more than 120 passenger vehicles.
Neste's long-term distributor, Diesel Direct, the nation's largest mobile on-site fueling company, and their partnership with KW Rastall Oil, New Jersey Natural Gas' fuel supplier, make testing and delivering Neste MY Renewable Diesel possible. Since 2018, Diesel Direct has been distributing Neste MY Renewable Diesel to hard-to-abate industries in the U.S. Neste supports New Jersey's goal to reduce GHG emissions from transportation by replicating its value chain in the state.
Neste MY Renewable Diesel is the first Top Tier renewable diesel fuel certified for its high quality. It can be used in its neat form or blended with fossil diesel at any ratio. It also performs well in extreme cold conditions and can be stored over long periods without deterioration, making it an ideal choice for New Jersey Natural Gas.
Neste is increasing its annual production capacity to 1.9 billion gallons (5.5 million tons) of renewable products globally in 2024. Neste was one of the first companies to supply renewable diesel to states on the West Coast, including California and Oregon, and the company is rapidly expanding its production, fueling station network, and distribution capabilities to meet the growing demand across the U.S.
