@nta16   You only quoted part of the line posted.

The important bit was the ESSO & Greenergy.     They do not supply ESSO in all regions of the UK.  Or did not, which is why the Ethanol content can be different. 

Thanks I saw that bit, it was the Tesco bit I was interested in as I think a good while back I looked before, but not too much, and couldn't see if Tesco were still involved but saw how much the Greenergy had grown.  If I don't ask straight away I forget again, it's of no real importance to me just curious, while I remember.  Cheers.

 

On the Greenergy front

Who owns what these days is something that they are not always wanting made public in these days of GREEN Washing.

Oil & Gas Companies owning Wind & Solar and renewables, &the likes of  Qatar,s share in the Volkswagen Group.

another toxic waste dump?
an oil for food scandal?
explosive neutralization of chemicals?
fraud investigations?

Nah nothing much ;o)
 

The UK Government love Fuel Security.

As Refineries close in the UK.  Nothing much is owned by companies that are British.

 

As for INEOS. 

Sir Jim Rattcliffe and his backers will do what they want when they want and they will have 'Grangemouth' anyway they want it to be regardless of who is in Government. 

I saw the "Trafigura agrees terms to acquire Greenery’s European business" in the Greenergy history page but had no clue about who they are. - https://www.greenergy.com/our-history

 

[Greenergy] - "Supplying around a quarter of the UK’s road fuels, Greenergy is also a leading European manufacturer of biodiesel from wastes, operating plants in the UK and the Netherlands."  Yeap, it's grown.

 

AS for what the country or people of the country own don't get me started, we don't even own the rain that falls from the sky and don't get me started on when and why that started  . . . .  still, look on the bright side, we'll be dead soon so none of it matters to us old-farts. 😁
