Biodiesel station, 'congreenience' store opening in Dover

Biodiesel station, 'congreenience' store opening in Dover: "STRATHAM — Simply Green Biofuels will open the first biodiesel refueling station and 'con-green-ience' store in the state next month.

'The station will be located at 547 Central Ave., Dover,' said Simply Green Manager Shannon Hill. 'It will be our first station and the first exclusively biodiesel station in the state.'

The station will feature gasoline made with 10 percent ethanol (E10), BioDiesel (both B5 and B20), and a convenience store model with a focus on local products.

Simply Green is taking what its owners call the '100 Mile Challenge' by committing to stock at least 75 percent of the congreenience store's inventory with products created within a 100-mile radius of Dover.

'This concept was second nature to us,' said Andrew Kellar, founder of Simply Green Biofuels. 'We want to provide a local option, not only for fuel, but for items that people use every day.

'Our customers can come in to shop and know that what they are buying is helping our local community, as well as reducing their own carbon footprint,' Kellar said."
