Brooklyn Fuel Company to Launch BioGreen(TM)

Mon Oct 26, 2009 8:02am EDT
NEW YORK, Oct. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Boro Fuel Oil Co., Inc., a Brooklyn fuel and
energy services dealer for 80 years, is going green.

On November 1st the company will introduce BioGreen(TM) - a new premium
biofuel that's good for heating systems and the earth. Boro Fuel Oil is the
first heating oil dealer in New York City to offer BioGreen(TM).

A blend of traditional heating oil and 10% soybean oil, eco-friendly
BioGreen(TM) premium biofuel is clean, renewable, biodegradable, and
non-toxic. BioGreen(TM) is also kind to the American economy: Domestically
produced from soybeans grown in the U.S.A., BioGreen(TM) helps to support
American agriculture and reduces our dependence on foreign oil.

BioGreen(TM) also offers heating oil customers the following benefits:

    --  BioGreen(TM) burns cleaner than conventional heating oil and
        significantly reduces emissions that contribute to air pollution and
        global warming.
    --  BioGreen(TM) has the highest BTU content of any alternative fuel, for
        satisfying warmth.
    --  BioGreen(TM) lubricates heating system parts more thoroughly and
        efficiently - resulting in fewer service calls and a longer heating
        system lifespan.

    --  BioGreen(TM) costs the same as conventional heating oil - and
consumers
        don't need to modify their heating equipment or change their
warranties.


BioGreen(TM) users will also be rewarded financially, thanks to New York
State's Bioheat® Tax Credit, which allows Boro Fuel Oil customers a direct tax
credit of 10 cents for each gallon of BioGreen(TM) they buy through 2011.

"We are proud to be at the forefront of the green energy revolution with our
eco-friendly BioGreen(TM)," says Jeff Cohn, President of Boro Fuel Oil. "And,
of course, we're proud to be the first heating oil dealer in Brooklyn to offer
this breakthrough product. Not every fuel company out there offers a green,
clean fuel like BioGreen(TM). It's one more way we're helping our customers
save energy ... which also saves them money."

"With the introduction of BioGreen(TM), we're making New York City a greener
place to live," says Cohn.

Available to residential and commercial customers, Boro Fuel is rolling out
its BioGreen(TM) brand with a dedicated Web site, www.BioGreenNY.com and phone
number, (888) OK-BIOGREEN, as well as an advertising and promotional campaign.
For additional information on BioGreen(TM), contact Jeff Cohn at (718)
854-7500 or (888) OK-BIOGREEN.

Founded by Joseph Cohn in 1929 with offices in Borough Park, Brooklyn, Boro
Fuel Oil is a family-owned and operated energy company serving Brooklyn,
Queens and Manhattan.
