Keep Your Heating Options Open
State policy makers have announced plans to phase out carbon-intensive fuels, including home heating oil, through electrification and carbon taxation that would put many heating oil companies out of business. The consequences for homeowners could be:
Stress on the Grid
Of the $12.86 billion in grid-modernization investment under consideration, regulators only approved $478.7 million during the quarter, according to the NC Clean Energy Technology Center [source].
Bioheat® Fuel Is Another Solution
Over the past two decades, heating oil has been increasingly cleansed of sulfur and blended with clean-burning biodiesel to create ultra-low sulfur Bioheat® fuel. The industry is committed to increasing the blend ratio to avoid future carbon taxation and make heating oil the cleanest, most sustainable, and most reliable residential heat source available on the planet.

Watch this quick video to get a breakdown of rising global temperatures, the effects on oceans and our environment, and how low-carbon energy like Bioheat® fuel can be a part of the solution to protecting our planet.
The Road to Carbon Neutral
Several state and regional heating oil associations have committed to supporting the following decarbonization strategy, which sets an industry-wide timeline for transitioning the heating oil supply pool to higher blends of clean-burning, renewable Bioheat® fuel. Reaching a 50-percent biodiesel blend (B50) by 2030 would align with the carbon-reduction targets being set by many neighborhoods where you live.
