Renewable diesel, Pier 80 and grid risk in San Francisco
Serving City and County of San Francisco
San Francisco made its fuel choice early. In December 2015 the City announced it had moved its entire municipal diesel fleet to renewable diesel. At the time it was the largest city in North America to make that switch. Private fleets that want to match it can run R99 renewable diesel in the same engines and tanks.
The Southern Waterfront still works. Pier 80 is a 60-acre cargo pier operated by Pasha to export automobiles. The Potrero Hill rail tunnels are too low for the tri-level cars used to move vehicles. So most of that freight leaves by truck. Terminals, aggregate yards and the trucks that serve them all run on diesel.
When the grid goes down
San Francisco has little cold weather to plan for. Its fuel risk is the grid. On December 20, 2025, a fire at PG&E’s Mission substation started an outage that grew to more than 130,000 customers. The last customers did not get power back until December 23. For a hospital, a lab or a high-rise with life-safety systems, that is the scenario backup generators are built for. An outage that runs past 48 hours tests the tank, not the engine. Know your runtime at full load, and set up refueling before the next outage.
Which FuelGo services fit San Francisco
- Standby power: scheduled generator fueling, emergency fuel delivery and fuel polishing for tanks that sit.
- Fleets: mobile fleet fueling in the yard, with R99 for fleets matching the City’s standard.
- Waterfront and job sites: off-road diesel delivery for cranes and loaders. See our construction page.

How Fuel Gets to You
Mobile fueling or bulk delivery: which fits your San Francisco site?
Three delivery formats. We’ll quote whichever fits your volume, site access and cost target.
Wet-Hose Fueling
Mobile fleet fueling
Overnight or day shift, fuel direct to each tank
A driver pulls into your yard after hours, fuels every truck or piece of equipment directly, logs each fill, and clears out before your crews arrive. No staff required on site.
Best for: Trucking fleets, delivery yards, rental fleets and service vehicles.
Tank Wagon Delivery
On-site tank fills
20 – 4,400 gallons per drop · same-day or scheduled
A smaller delivery truck fills your day tank, jobsite bulk tank or generator. The flexible option when volume varies or site access is tight.
Best for: Construction sites, generator refills, day tanks and smaller bulk storage.
Transport Load
Bulk transport delivery
Full transport loads to 7,500+ gallons · scheduled
Tractor-trailer delivery straight into large bulk storage. The lowest cost per gallon for high-volume buyers.
Best for: Data centers, large industrial sites, agriculture and rail yards.

San Francisco FAQ
San Francisco fuel delivery questions, answered
Can you deliver R99 renewable diesel in San Francisco?
Yes. The City's own fleet has run on renewable diesel since 2015. R99 isn't stocked at every terminal; where it can't be pulled locally, it ships in by rail or barge, so tell dispatch your volumes early.
Do you refuel standby generators at hospitals, data rooms and high-rises in San Francisco?
Yes. We top off day tanks and belly tanks on a schedule, and dispatch runs 24/7/365 for outages. The December 2025 Mission substation fire showed how quickly a single grid failure can put a third of the city on backup power.
Do you fuel equipment at the Pier 80-96 terminals and Bayview industrial sites?
Yes. Yard tractors, cargo-handling equipment, reefers and construction machines on the Southern Waterfront can be fueled where they work, with dyed off-road or clear on-road diesel and DEF.
Do you deliver fuel 24/7 in San Francisco?
Yes. FuelGo dispatch runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, including nights, weekends and holidays. Call 800-720-4546 any time, or request a quote online and a dispatcher replies within the hour.
What fuels can you deliver in San Francisco?

How much fuel can you deliver at once?

How much is diesel tax in California?
On-road (clear) diesel in California carries $0.7330 per gallon in combined federal and state taxes and fees, and off-road (dyed) diesel $0.0080 per gallon, as of October 5, 2026. Sales and local taxes are extra where they apply. Using dyed diesel on public roads is illegal. See diesel taxes by state →
Do you offer emergency fuel delivery in San Francisco?
Yes. If a generator is running low or a site is about to run dry, call 800-720-4546 and a dispatcher will confirm what we can get to you and when.
Can you set up recurring scheduled deliveries?
Yes. Most customers start with a one-time delivery and move to a recurring schedule, so tanks, generators and fleets are topped up before they run low, without anyone having to call it in.
Do you rent fuel tanks?
Yes. We rent diesel and gasoline tanks from 119 to 17,000 gallons, with pumps, meters and hose fitted, and refills on a schedule. See our fuel tank rental page for sizes.
Do you have smaller trucks for tight sites?
Yes. Smaller delivery trucks reach tight urban sites, parking structures and jobsites where a full-size tanker can’t fit.
What payment options do you accept?
Credit cards, ACH and checks. Credit terms are available for qualifying commercial accounts. Ask your dispatcher for details.
