Bioheat® Fuel

For a low-carbon fuel option, ask your local oil provider about heating with Bioheat® fuel. As demand for alternative fuels is becoming increasingly popular, more and more New Hampshire oil heat providers are adopting Bioheat® fuel as an offering for their customers.

What Is Bioheat® Fuel?

While standard home heating oil is becoming cleaner each year with new technologies and advancements, alternative fuels like Bioheat® fuel, made from biodiesel and ultra-low sulfur heating oil, are helping to revolutionize the heating oil industry.

Bioheat® fuel incorporates biodiesel made from renewable resources, like recycled vegetable oils, with standard home heating oil for a more environmentally friendly alternative fuel.

Where Does Bioheat® Fuel Come From?

The biodiesel used to create Bioheat® fuel is made from renewable resources like recycled vegetable oils, including soybean oil, an agricultural byproduct.  The Bioheat® fuel industry is aiding in our efforts toward energy independence and helping to create more jobs in the U.S.

How Is Bioheat® Fuel Better for the Environment?

Bioheat® fuel is a standout renewable energy choice because it is the only low-carbon heating fuel that can continue to lower its carbon content. Right now, Bioheat® fuel is made by blending heating fuel with renewable biodiesel to produce significantly fewer emissions. The Bioheat® fuel industry plans to continue to lower its carbon content until it reaches net-zero emissions. That means the Bioheat® fuel you can use right now is much better for our environment, and the Bioheat® fuel of the future will be even better, cleaner, and safer.

And, now that New Hampshire has made the transition to ultra-low sulfur heating oil, the Bioheat® fuel blend is even more clean burning.

Does Bioheat® Fuel Cost More to Use?

Most conveniently, switching to Bioheat® fuel requires no expensive system modifications to your current heating system. Bioheat® fuel can be used in existing liquid heating fuel furnaces or boilers. That means it’s much easier than you may have expected to start ordering Bioheat® fuel to heat your home or business in New Hampshire.
