New biodiesel terminal open on Lake Michigan
New York-based Innovation Fuels has begun selling biodiesel to customers through a Port of Milwaukee terminal located on Lake Michigan.
The 312,000-barrel capacity terminal is the first in the country dedicated to the sale and distribution of renewable fuels.
The port allows the receiving of international shipping via the St. Lawrence Seaway and river barge cargo via the Mississippi River.
In addition, the terminal, an old Shell Oil headquarters site, includes a Westshore petroleum pipeline capable of bringing diesel and petrol into the facility for blending with renewable fuels.
‘The commencement of selling biodiesel via the Milwaukee terminal will significantly lower the cost of the company’s biodiesel to customers in the Great Lakes due to lower transportation charges,’ says company CEO John Fox.
