“Thirty years later, we’re no longer wondering ‘what if’ our community-based model could supply local clean fuel while fighting climate change and supporting our local economy. It does. We are also no longer wondering if regenerative agriculture could feed not only our biodiesel production but also our local community. It is.”

– Kelly King, Pacific Biodiesel Co-founder

“From opening the first retail biodiesel pump in the USA three decades ago to farming the first commercial crop of sunflowers on Maui, Pacific Biodiesel continues to demonstrate a community-based model of renewable fuel and regenerative agriculture thatʻs helping to fight climate change, support Hawaiʻiʻs energy security and food sovereignty, and expand circular economy benefits in our island state.”

– Jenna Long, Pacific Biodiesel Director of Operations

“Our model is one that promotes both food and energy production. In Hawai‘i, we have an acute understanding of our supply chain and the fact that 90% of our state’s food is imported. Hawai‘i is the most isolated archipelago in the world, with the closest major landmass 2,400 miles away. There is an urgent need to increase food and energy production in Hawai‘i to reduce dependence on imported goods and bolster food security across the state.”

– James Twigg-Smith, Pacific Biodiesel Director of Agriculture Operations

“Our innovative off-grid biodiesel fueling stations bring new capabilities to our customers, like the ability to remotely check pricing on their smartphones and provide free fleet management software access for commercial customers.”

– Chris Long, Pacific Biodiesel Sales Manager

“Hawaiʻi’s restaurants may not realize this, but by recycling their UCO with Pacific Biodiesel, they are part of the renewable energy solution for our island state. By working with our local company, restaurants are making a positive impact on the environment and our local economy.”

– Dana Shinsato, Fleet Manager for Pacific Biodiesel
