Support our Island bio-fueller
From The County Press
The Island’s first bio-diesel company has appealed for businesses to recycle used cooking oil to convert to green fuel.
Wight Made Bio-Diesel plans to increase production to up to 1500 litres a week, after a successful pilot project.
At around 10p a litre cheaper than normal diesel, there is no shortage of demand, according to company founders Joan Martin and Chris Sprackling.
Committed to the Island, they only use cooking oil that can be recycled as opposed to oil specially produced for bio-diesel. “We want it to stay on the Island. Some companies will collect waste oil but then it has to be transported off the Island to be converted.”
So not only do they help the Island’s economy, they also reduce the transport miles involved.
