Greenergy expands into Canada

Greenergy has announced plans to penetrate the fuel industry in Canada.

From the second quarter of next year, the UK-based supplier of petrol and diesel will begin supplying fossil and biofuels to south western Ontario.

Greenergy's first supply location in Canada will be Vopak's Hamilton terminal. From here it will supply E10 petrol, ethanol and ULSD. A number of terminal improvements are to be made to the site before Greenergy begins supplying E10 in the second quarter of next year.

'In the UK, Greenergy has achieved a long-term growth by delivering what every customer ultimately wants – lowest priced fuel combined with the highest levels of customer service, supply resilience, operational efficiency and sustainability. We intend to replicate that strategy in Canada,' Paul Bateson, COO of Greenergy's international operations and director of Greenergy Fuels Canada, says.

Today Greenergy supplies over 25% of the UK's road fuel market. In a statement, the company said it is now looking to expand internationally and build on its existing operations in the UK, US and Brazil.

The company intends to expand to other supply locations in Canada in due course.
