American GreenFuels
30 Waterfront Street , New Haven, Connecticut, United States

American GreenFuels is your local producer of environmentally-friendly, certified and environmentally validated biodiesel — biodiesel reduces carbon emissions as compared with traditional ultra low sulfur heating oil.  American GreenFuels, LLC manufactures high quality biodiesel in New Haven, Connecticut. We produce our biodiesel from a multitude of feedstocks, which includes waste collected from other industries that we reuse in our facility. Once produced, our biodiesel is then blended by our distributor network with ultra low sulfur heating oil to create Bioheat® heating oil.  Our New Haven plant was built in 2012, became operational in 2013, and presently employs a staff of 50 people directly and an additional 200 people indirectly within Connecticut. Currently, we have the capacity to produce approximately 40 million gallons of biodiesel annually.  As part of the Kolmar Americas family, we continue to work hard to increase the amount of biodiesel that we produce for the marketplace — which creates more jobs for Connecticut and provides greater benefits to both the environment and the economy.
