Are heating oil and road diesel the same?

Road diesel is not the same as home heating oil.

Heating oil is either kerosene or green diesel depending on the heating system.

Road diesel is known as white diesel and must be used in diesel vehicles that use the road network with the exception of agricultural machines which can use green diesel.

Green diesel is used in diesel engines that work off road .

What is Red Diesel?

Red diesel no longer exists in Ireland. We changed from red diesel to green diesel many years ago. The difference between green diesel and red diesel is the colour of dye that is put into the fuel.
