HILLSBORO, Ore., Sept. 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Bretthauer Oil
announced today the availability of REG Ultra Clean™ Diesel for
bulk delivery and for purchase at Bretthauer Oil cardlock sites in
Hillsboro, Oregon and McMinnville, Oregon. Developed by Renewable
Energy Group, Inc., (Nasdaq: REGI) REG Ultra Clean Diesel delivers
superior performance with fewer emissions than conventional diesel,
renewable diesel or biodiesel.
The distribution of REG Ultra Clean Diesel is part of Bretthauer
Oil's commitment to provide customers with new products and
services that are more environmentally sustainable and offer
superior performance to traditional fuels. Bretthauer Oil will
continue to offer conventional diesel products in addition to REG
Ultra Clean Diesel, but will adopt REG Ultra Clean Diesel for its
own fleet to decrease the company's carbon footprint.
Washington County (Oregon) is committed as the first customer to
purchase REG Ultra Clean Diesel from Bretthauer Oil. "Using
REG Ultra Clean Diesel will reduce greenhouse gas emissions and
particulate matter and make our engines run cleaner and, in
turn, more efficiently," said Tom
Keyser, CFFA/CAFS, Fleet Manager for Washington County. "REG Ultra Clean Diesel is
a step in the right direction to move away from pure fossil-based
diesel, and we look forward to partnering with Bretthauer Oil
Company to find more sustainable and cleaner diesel solutions for
our vehicles."
REG Ultra Clean Diesel is a patent-pending blend of renewable
diesel and biodiesel that significantly reduces tailpipe emissions
and has multiple performance advantages compared to conventional
diesel. By combining the increased cetane of renewable diesel with
the increased lubricity and more complete combustion of biodiesel,
REG Ultra Clean Diesel offers improved combustion quality, reduced
engine wear and more reliable operation year-round compared to
conventional diesel. On top of these significant performance
benefits, REG Ultra Clean Diesel has 20 percent lower total
hydrocarbon emissions, 25 percent lower carbon monoxide emissions
and 40 percent lower particulate emissions than ultra-low sulfur
diesel. The result is a high-performance fuel that is significantly
better for air quality and the environment than conventional
diesel.
