Do Your Transportation Plans Include Sustainability?

March 14, 2018

Diesel Direct is committed to sustainable energy and provides safe and environmentally friendly fuel options. As a nationwide mobile fueling company delivering fuel coast to coast, we’re in a unique position to put our sustainability plan and goals into practice.

Mobile fueling helps to reduce emissions through reducing trips to and from fuel stations. On average, a truck needs to be driven 8 miles to find a station that can accommodate it. Finding a station that can accommodate multiple trucks, that has easy access to entry and exit, and has a diesel fuel island, can be a challenge. Roundtrip, that adds up to about 16 extra miles to get fueled. Every gallon of diesel burned releases 22 pounds of CO2 into the atmosphere. Mobile fueling can save around 60 pounds of CO2 each time a truck is fueled.

Idling also contributes to unnecessary CO2 being released into the atmosphere. Since we fuel while your trucks are parked, fuel burn related to idling time at a gas station is saved.

In addition to the basic atmospheric savings based on services alone, Diesel Direct uses Pure Aire Diesel®. Pure Air Diesel offsets each gallon used by funding certified environmental projects that removed CO2 from the atmosphere, enabling us to run our business carbon neutral.

We invite you to do the same. Pure Air Diesel is available to purchase from Diesel Direct. We know that getting funding for sustainability plans can be a challenge. Pure Air Diesel allows you to build your sustainability plans directly into your fuel budget. Diesel Direct purchases offsets on your behalf and sends you a third-party certificate each quarter showing your CO2 offsets.
