Well, it’s finally happened. Biodiesel has made it’s way to Lynchburg!
In case you missed the article in the News and Advance here’s an excerpt:
“An increasingly popular fuel, biodiesel promises decreased dependence on foreign oil and cleaner air. Two companies in Central Virginia are now trying to bring those benefits closer to home. Premium Biodiesel One on Carroll Avenue opened in Lynchburg on Oct. 1. Owned by two brothers, the company is one of the first to retail biodiesel in the city. Foster Fuels added biodiesel to its product line in February when the company moved its base of operations to Brookneal, in southern Campbell County.
Most vehicles that run on diesel fuel can use biodiesel, too. The industry is barely beginning to show its face in Central Virginia. The National Biodiesel Board lists only 20 distributors in Virginia, including Foster Fuels and Premium Biodiesel One. But these companies, as well as some of their customers, are counting on the industry to take off.”
