Broco Energy has been awarded two five-year statewide fuel contracts by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, covering biodiesel, renewable diesel and eligible liquid biofuels for public-sector buyers.
The Massachusetts-based fuel distributor announced on 4 November 2026 that it had secured contracts ENE53 and ENE58. The agreements allow eligible municipalities, government agencies and other public entities across the state to purchase fuels through the Commonwealth’s procurement programme.
ENE53 covers ultra-low sulphur diesel, biodiesel and renewable diesel, while ENE58 covers No. 2 heating oil and liquid biofuel eligible under the state’s Alternative Portfolio Standard (APS).
The awards provide public-sector organisations with access to conventional and lower-carbon fuel options through the state purchasing framework. However, Broco Energy’s announcement did not disclose contract values, expected fuel volumes or delivery schedules.
Contracts cover transport and heating fuels
The two contracts address separate fuel requirements.
ENE53 covers diesel and biofuel products, including biodiesel and renewable diesel. ENE58 covers No. 2 heating oil and APS-eligible liquid biofuel, extending the range of fuel options available to public entities for heating applications.
Massachusetts’ statewide procurement system is designed to simplify purchasing for eligible organisations by providing access to approved suppliers and established contract terms. The state’s procurement information identifies ENE53 as the contract for ultra-low sulphur diesel and biodiesel, and ENE58 as the contract for No. 2 heating oil and APS-eligible liquid biofuel.
Broco Energy’s renewable fuel supply capabilities
Broco Energy said the awards build on its fuel distribution operations and rail infrastructure, which includes what the company describes as the largest rail-served biodiesel terminal in the Northeast.
The company also cited its role in supplying and delivering renewable diesel for Massport’s renewable diesel initiative. The project introduced renewable diesel into fuel supply operations supporting critical transportation infrastructure in Massachusetts.
For heating applications, Broco Energy supplies heating oil and eligible liquid biofuels through its Bioheat® offerings. The company said the ENE58 award builds on its existing work serving heating fuel customers across the state.
Company highlights public-sector fuel supply role
Broco Energy President Robert Brown said the company appreciated the Commonwealth’s confidence and the opportunity to continue serving public entities across Massachusetts.
The company, founded in 2007, distributes petroleum products, renewable fuels, lubricants, propane and heating oil across New England. It also provides HVAC and plumbing services and emergency fuel supply for critical infrastructure.
Bioenergy Business Analysis
The awards give Broco Energy a route to supply biodiesel, renewable diesel and eligible liquid biofuel to a broad range of public-sector buyers in Massachusetts over the stated five-year contract terms.
The development is relevant to the regional renewable fuels market because public procurement frameworks can provide an established purchasing route for lower-carbon fuel options. Massachusetts’ existing ENE53 guidance also requires certain state agencies and public institutions to use at least a 5% biofuel blend in diesel purchased for specified vehicle fleets, while encouraging them to explore higher biodiesel blends where technically and operationally suitable.
The announcement does not, however, establish how much biodiesel or renewable diesel Broco Energy expects to supply under the awards. Nor does it indicate that all purchases made through the contracts will be renewable fuels. The contracts cover both conventional and bio-based products, and actual fuel selection will depend on buyers’ requirements.
