The FTA’s annual Logistics Carbon Reduction Scheme conference, Cutting Carbon, Cutting Costs¸ took place last month with our very own Commercial Manager, Eddie O’Reilly, joining the panel session to present our experiences of utilising used cooking oil as an alternative fuel.

After careful consultation and development, our brand new packaging has been released. These products may look different but rest assured, these new packs contain the same high quality oil that our customers have come to trust and will still be delivered by our Olleco cooking oil specialists.

We are delighted to announced we have again achieved ISO 14001 certification but this time for our state of the art biodiesel complex and depot site in Liverpool.

We are changing our name from Agri Energy to Olleco to better reflect what our customers have come to rely on us for.

With used cooking oil theft on the rise it is now more important than ever to make sure this valuable resource is collected by approved companies so that it can be converted into green fuel responsibly.

Want to hear more on the topic of the sustainability and cost implications of Ethanol as a renewable fuel in the UK? Why not listen to Robert Behan’s (CEO of Olleco) interview on BB2 with Rebecca Pike on the Simon Mayo Drivetime show.

The full independent report: ‘Sustainability and Cost Considerations of Renewable Transport Fuels in the United Kingdom’ is now available upon request.

Research commissioned by Olleco was released today highlighting that increased levels of ethanol in petrol (known as E10) will result in drivers needing more fuel to travel the same distance. This extra fuel requirement will increase costs for the average driver by £80 per year compared to using straight petrol.
