INLAND OFFERS QUALITY WHOLESALE ENERGY PRODUCTS VITAL TO GROWING YOUR BUSINESS

Inland Fuel ensures you have year-round access to a secure and reliable source of quality energy products. We offer marketers a full range of products including:

• Home heating oil is one of the most popular heating sources for homes in the Northeast where over 6 million households are heated by fuel oil. This represents 78% of the entire home heating oil market in the United States.
• Ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel (ULSD) was proposed by the Environmental Protection Agency as a new standard for the sulfur content in on-road diesel fuel sold in the United States since 2006. The regulation applies to all diesel fuel, diesel fuel additives and distillate fuels blended with diesel for on-road use (such as kerosene). All highway diesel fuel is ultra-low sulfur. Non-road diesel fuel was required to move to 500 ppm sulfur in 2007 and further to ULSD in 2010. Railroad locomotive and marine diesel fuel also moved to 500 ppm sulfur in 2007 and switched to ULSD in 2012. Since December 1, 2014, all highway, non-road, locomotive and marine diesel fuel produced and imported has been ULSD.
• Dyed diesel is used primarily to identify fuels that are not taxed so that they cannot be used in lieu of the taxed versions of the fuel. The Internal Revenue Service mandates use of red dye for tax-exempt diesel fuels such as heating oil. The coloring is in sufficient concentration to allow detection even when diluted with “legal” fuel. Detection of red-dyed fuel in the fuel system of an on-road vehicle will incur substantial penalties. Also, the Environmental Protection Agency mandates use of a red dye to identify high-sulfur fuels for off-road use.
• Biofuel refers to a vegetable oil or animal fat-based diesel fuel consisting of long-chain alkyl (methyl, propyl or ethyl) esters. Biofuel is typically made from domestically produced soybean oil and helps offset the amount of petroleum consumed.  Biofuel can be used alone or blended with conventional fuels such as heating oil and ultra-low sulfur diesel. Biofuel can be used as a heating fuel in domestic and commercial boilers. A mix of heating oil and biofuel can be used in existing furnaces without modification.
• Kerosene is a combustible hydrocarbon liquid. It was originally used in lamps but is now used more widely for heating and to power engines. There is essentially no difference between dyed kerosene and kerosene. Dyed fuels are dyed to indicate that they are not taxed and therefore cannot be used instead of the taxed versions of the fuel.
• Propane is a versatile liquefied petroleum gas that can be used as a fuel for engines, for heating and to power household appliances such as water heaters, stoves, clothing dryers and barbeque grills. About 90% of U.S. propane is produced domestically.
