HESPERIA — An environmentally friendly fuel source called biodiesel has made its way to Hesperia, the only city within 100 miles to offer the fuel at regular gas pumps.
A newly remodeled station at 9269 Sante Fe Avenue is to offer the fuel beginning Wednesday, following a noon ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Data from the National Biodiesel Board states that, "biodiesel will reduce emissions and global warming," as compared to traditional diesel.
The Goodspeed Companies, a local fuel distributor and owner/ operator of multiple fueling stations recently reopened the Sante Fe Avenue location with additional islands, new pumps, more fuel types and improved security, a statement from the company's CFO Doug Kelly said.
That facility will also offer clear diesel for highway use and red-dyed diesel for off-road use, as well as unleaded, mid-grade and premium gasoline.
Biodiesel is intended to offer similar power for diesel engines as well as reducing harmful emissions into the atmosphere while reducing dependency on fossil fuel supplies.
