December 03, 2012 [OPIS] - Biodiesel producer and marketer Renewable Energy Group (REG) announced Thursday distribution deals at four New York metropolitan terminal locations.
Specifically, the locations will be in Whippany, N.J., and New York locations in New Hyde Park, Port Chester and near Brookhaven.
“Gaining access to the largest biodiesel terminal network in New York is part of Renewable Energy Group’s strategy to expand into the Northeast market as a reliable biodiesel supplier,” said REG President and CEO Daniel J. Oh.
The new locations come as New York City’s 2% biodiesel requirement for heating oil comes back into force. The state Department of Environmental Protection issued a temporary waiver in response to Superstorm Sandy.
“REG has biodiesel on-site in New Hyde Park today to allow area distributors and heating oil retailers to increase supply as the New York City biodiesel blend (B2) requirement goes back into effect Dec. 1,” added Gary Haer, vice president, Sales and Marketing for REG.
REG markets REG-9000 branded biodiesel nationwide and directly from REG terminal locations in California, Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota, New Mexico, Texas, Ohio and now New York and New Jersey. The company’s current operational production capacity is more than 225 million gal/yr.
