With ever increasing diesel prices, it’s hard to grow a business and stay efficient. Also, petro-diesel poses a host of other problems including noxious smells, damaging impacts on air quality, spill risks, and foreign oil dependence.
Non-profit fleets, vessels and generators, we have a solution to the rising fuel costs and environmental and political impacts of diesel. It’s Sunshine Renewable Diesel, produced in the United States.
We’ve been perfecting our product and quality for years, and are happy to say it is the best all around biofuel out there.

Sunshine Biofuels team has spent the last 7 years and significant capital dollars in the development of these ideas in to a holistic, practical, economical, product set and business model that benefits both the suppliers and end fuel users to a greater extent than any other solution on the market in the US today. Our Sunshine Renewable Diesel Product is a proprietary product, as is the processing equipment we have designed, and the process we use to make it. In addition, Sunshine Biofuels has contributed to the development of the fully automated dual fuel technology that is offered by Green My Fleet to high speed diesel engine owners who wish to save money with Sunshine Renewable Diesel Product.
We can get you up and running with this alternative fuel in just weeks. You can have fuel delivered and be saving money promptly.
Containers should be double walled but can be plastic with aluminum reinforcement as with simple 275 IBC liquid cube containers. Pumps, fuel line, and meters do not need to be class I Div I certified making them available at a fraction of the cost of existing equipment for diesel. Sunshine Renewable Diesel can basically be stored with the same precautions as new vegetable oil. This dramatically lowers the risk profile, hassle, and expense for companies storing large volumes of petroleum diesel fuel on their property, close to the water, or having to maintain handling equipment that is expensive and replaced frequently.
….what free fuel would do to your operating budget. Also, the feeling you will get being energy independent and not at the whim of the oil companies is bar none.
Sunshine Renewable Diesel is tested and certified by Inspectorate one of the largest petroleum testing lab companies in the world. We are also partnered with Fuch’s Motor oils for distribution of our recommended PLANTOMOT plant oil based motor oil and motor oil testing services to monitor fuel performance.
Sunshine Renewable has customers all over the globe who have successfully been using our fuel for years.
Since we are now making our fuel publically available and looking add more great customer stories and to establish fuel users in the major marine, fleet, and generator markets, we will pick one of the first 5 first qualified customers who submit their information here and offer them a $0.00 upfront cost conversion of their high speed diesel vessel, tractor trailer, or generator engine. Don’t miss out as this can be up to a $7,000.00 value!
We would like to offer this great fuel and service to everyone in the marine and off road market but we are presently limited to a fixed but growing amount of manufacturing capacity per month. Contracts for supply are arranged on averages per customer and once committed will always be supplied. Our fuel is apportioned on a first come first served basis for this with this unique expense saving opportunity.
Since the economics of fuel transport are similar for Sunshine Biofuels as they are for petroleum products, we offer our product as a discount from the diesel price in your market. So we are ALWAYS less expensive than Diesel whether you buy from one of our stations, have it delivered, or pick up from our facility. In general we average at least 10% less per gallon but in some cases as in marine fuel we can be more than $1.00 less per gallon.
We at Sunshine Biofuels realize that reliability and user friendliness are the minimum requirements for a customer to accept any new product. What people really want is a guarantee. Not a warranty where the back of the paper is filled with small type exceptions to explain when the promise will not be held but a firm handshake, eye ball to eyeball, black and white warranty that is easy to understand and that inspires confidence.
We also know that no oil company warrants its fuel except when it leaves the terminal in bulk to the fueling site. Also no engine manufacturer warrants fuel related malfunctions. So you as a fuel consumer are never safe from fuel quality degradation or contamination.
With this in mind we have crafted a simple warranty that says, “if you follow our use and care instructions for the dual fuel system, use only Sunshine Renewable Diesel or ASTM 975 Diesel, keep your engine maintained according to manufacturer, use our PLANTOMOT motor oil, and use our motor oil analysis service for maintenance planning, and our fuel is responsible for damage we will fix it.”
We would like to just say if our Sunshine Renewable Diesel fuel damages your fuel system we will fix it but there are customers out there, and you know who you are, that will not maintain their engine either way and have issues. We think since Caterpillar and Exxon do not warrant their fuel in your engine or their engine on your fuel this is pretty amazing statement.
To be clear, Sunshine Renewable Diesel is not Biodiesel since we do not transesterify the oil with Methanol and Potassium Hydroxide solution but it is NOT used cooking oil (UCO) either. We buy used cooking oil by the tanker load from local collectors and if it were as simple as pushing it through a filter putting a label on it and delivering it to you we would do it gladly and save you more.
In fact, there is wild quality variance in one professional Used Cooking Oil (UCO) supplier to the next. Even at times from one load to the next with the same supplier. One vendor may call their UCO Used Cooking oil but it may have 8% water and 15% Free Fatty Acid by volume while another may call their UCO the same product but have 5% Water and 7% Free Fatty Acids and they might charge the same per gallon. If you cannot evaluate the quality of the feedstock oil as it relates to fuel and engine performance don’t buy it! Many times in our experience these UCO vendors do not have the tools to evaluate their own product let alone the industry knowledge in engine design, organic chemistry, mechanical engineering/combustion cycle theory, fuel system design, and quality control to begin thinking about selling an engine fuel. That is why they sell UCO to companies like us or try to sell to you.
In our years of research and development we have discovered that all that glitters is not gold and refining fuel from used cooking oil feedstocks is not as simple as it sounds with consistency. Sadly those who have the most to gain from researching and developing how to manufacture fuels from UCO have the least amount of time to do it because they are busy keeping cargo and vehicles in motion.
Beware companies that offer Used Cooking Oil (UCO) as “fuel”. If it were truly that easy there would be more people doing it and goodness knows we would be at the forefront. If they tell you they “clean” their oil real good, or cannot offer you a recent certificate of analysis from a professional laboratory they cannot guarantee any outcome and the law protects the seller from the buyer.
