DEF: Small Consumption, Big Impact

For businesses running diesel-powered fleets or equipment, Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is more than a requirement, it’s a way to keep operations efficient and compliant. At Energie Fuel Group, we provide dependable DEF delivery to help you stay focused on your business while meeting emission standards.

One of the most common questions we hear is: “How much DEF will I actually need?” The answer is reassuring: DEF consumption is relatively small. On average, engines consume DEF at a rate of about 3–4% of the diesel used. That means for every 100 gallons of diesel, your equipment will only require around 3 to 4 gallons of DEF.

This modest ratio delivers big benefits. By using DEF, your fleet reduces harmful nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions, improves fuel efficiency, and ensures compliance with EPA requirements. It’s a straightforward investment that saves money in the long run by avoiding downtime and costly penalties.

At Energie Fuel Group, we make it simple with bulk DEF delivery and solutions tailored to your operation’s scale. Pairing DEF delivery with our bulk fuel services ensures you’re covered from every angle.
