The innovative, sustainable service offers an environmentally responsible and economically efficient alternative to buying new tanks. Customers can expect significant savings while also cutting their carbon footprint and promoting circular resource use.

Redefining fuel service provision

“At New Era Energy, we’re redefining what it means to be a fuel services provider,” said Melissa Lancaster, Brand Manager at New Era Energy. “This programme isn’t just about prolonging tank life, it’s about building a smarter, more sustainable energy ecosystem.

“Restoring tanks prevents unnecessary waste, reduces embodied carbon, and helps our customers stay compliant and cost-efficient.

“Whether you’re managing a single site or a national fleet, New Era Energy’s restoration programme is a smarter, greener way to manage your fuel infrastructure. The production of a single steel fuel tank produces c.2.5 tonnes of CO2. For one of our customers we’re restoring 800 tanks, saving 2000 tonnes of CO2.

New Era’s restoration process includes a full 10-step refurbishment at its state-of-the-art facility in Huntingdon. This includes comprehensive inspection and ADR-compliant pressure testing, internal tank cleaning and decontamination, component servicing and part replacement, shot blasting and paint refinishing, livery and data plate replacement, and final reporting and certification.

Tanks can be delivered or collected nationwide, and the process is supported by New Era’s digital tank management platform, helping customers track inspections and compliance over time.
