Environmental Commitment
The Sokolis Group, a leading fuel management & fleet fuel consulting firm wants to motivate the transportation sector into a carbon offsetting neutral industry by offsetting or reducing GHG emissions.
Carbon offsetting is a way of compensating for the harmful emissions produced and released into the atmosphere with an equivalent carbon dioxide savings.
The process of carbon offsetting involves two steps: calculating fuel consumption and the carbon footprint followed by purchasing carbon offsetting credits from emissions reduction projects that are preventing or removing an equivalent amount of carbon dioxide from our atmosphere.
Your fleet fuel planning, fuel card, fleet card and mobile fueling involves a lot of time, this takes just a little effort and our fuel management solutions team can help.
- Our commitment to the environment is reflected in the future of our kids and their kids in a fleet fuel friendly environment
- To be a catalyst so other companies follow similar programs to reduce fleet fuel they use and use more alternative fuel like bio fuels and diesel fuel additives
- To motivate the transportation fleet fueling industry to take action based on a commitment to the environment
How we do it?
- The Sokolis Group has identified both the EPA's fuel program SmartWay and the Chicago Climate Exchange as platforms to invoke fleet fueling progress.
We decided that the follow additional criteria were important to us:
- Creditability
- Philanthropic and Humanitarian Benefits
- Transparency
What have we gained?
- We challenged the fleet fuel industry that uses gas and diesel fuel prices
- We become a catalyst for change in fleet fueling usage, bio fuels, diesel fuel additives
What can happen if everyone follows?
We have the ability to reduce the effects of global warming by releasing less and carbon offsetting more carbon dioxide. This is a global issue which requires attention from environmentally conscious individuals and businesses alike doing their part in reducing their respective levels of CO2 emissions and carbon footprint.
We're All In This Together!
We take our commitment to the environment to heart as one of the core values of our fuel management company. It's not just about lower diesel fuel prices or a quality fuel card or mobile fueling program.
This means making decisions in the way we do business to have a positive impact for the health of our planet and local communities.
Together, we can make the world a greener, healthier and happier place.
Conserve fleet fuel, use cleaner burning gas and diesel fuel additives along with using alternative fleet fuel such as bio fuels.
Our fuel consulting staff can help.
Alternative Fuel
At Sokolis Group, fuel management & fuel consulting on alternative fuel is important to us.
We believe that bio fuels have their place in alternative fleet fuel supply chain.
What are Bio fuels?
Bio fuels is the name of a clean burning alternative fuel, produced from domestic, renewable resources.
Bio diesel contains no petroleum, but it can be blended at any level with diesel fuel to create a bio diesel blend. It can be used in compression-ignition (diesel) engines with little or no modifications.
Bio diesel is simple to use, biodegradable, nontoxic, and essentially free of sulfur and aromatics.
Why should I use biodiesel?
Biodiesel is better for the environment because it is made from renewable resources and has lower emissions compared to petroleum diesel fuel.
It is less toxic than table salt and biodegrades as fast as sugar. Since it is made in the USA from renewable fuel resources such as soybeans, its use decreases our dependence on foreign fuel, contributes to our own economy and lower diesel fuel prices in the future.
Bio Fuels Offer Many Advantages:
- It is renewable fuel
- It is energy efficient alternative fleet fuel
- It displaces petroleum derived diesel fuel
- It can be used in most diesel equipment with no or only minor modifications
- It can reduce global warming gas emissions
- It can reduce tailpipe fuel emissions, including air toxics & carbon footprint
- It is nontoxic, biodegradable, and suitable for sensitive environments
- It is made in the United States from either agricultural or recycled resources
Sokolis Group’s fuel management team can help your company review bio diesel, bio fuels, gas and other alternative fleet fueling as part of our fuel management program and fleet management solutions.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid - DEF (Urea)
As your fuel management company, our goal is to stay ahead of the latest information in the fleet fuel world.
One of the newest topics is diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) is an operating fluid for Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology, which will be in new heavy duty commercial vehicles from 2010.
DEF is not a fuel or fleet fuel additive; it is injected into the exhaust system to chemically reduce NOx emissions from diesel powered vehicles.
This is a good thing for cleaner air and a lower carbon footprint.
DEF is a high-purity urea solution complying with the Standards of ISO 22241.
This is the highest quality and safety standard in place which ensures the correct functioning of Selective Catalytic Reduction equipment.
Sokolis Group fuel consultants will make sure that your DEF supplier providers the best product and service for your fleet management.
Most engine manufacturers chose SCR over competing technologies due to the fuel economy benefits of SCR as compared with other options.
SCR is expected to improve overall fuel economy by approximately 5%.
With increased fleet fuel economy and selective fleet fuel consulting, your fuel planning and fuel management program are sure to be a winner with Sokolis Group.
