About Us

Advancing waste-based feedstocks and biofuels

At Gelsenkraft, we are dedicated to advancing the use of waste-based feedstocks and biofuels within the global energy transition. Founded in 2010 and headquartered in Coesfeld, Germany, we have built a strong international presence, trading, transporting, and consulting on sustainable raw materials for biodiesel, HVO and biogas production.

What defines us is the combination of market expertise, operational reliability and a strong partner network. Certified under the European Renewable Energy Directive (ISCC / REDcert), we ensure compliance, traceability and quality across every transaction. Our clients value us for being trustworthy, competent and reliable, three principles that have shaped our growth from day one.

From our history and milestones to our mission, vision and team, Gelsenkraft is more than a trading company: we are a committed partner for a sustainable energy future.

History

Gelsenkraft GmbH was founded in 2010 by co-owners Roger Böing and Jörg Terschluse with the aim of contributing to a more sustainable energy system. From the beginning, our focus has been on the trading of bio-based raw materials and building strong, reliable partnerships with suppliers and customers. In 2013, we expanded our international footprint with the opening of an office in Murcia, Spain, strengthening our position in Southern Europe and beyond. Over the years, we have grown into a trusted partner with a global network, recognized for our solid contract performance, punctual logistics and strong financial management.

Our history is one of continuous development, diversification and commitment to sustainability – always with the goal of creating long-term value for our partners and driving the energy transition forward.

Vision

Our vision is to be a trusted global leader in the trading and supply of sustainable feedstocks. We aim to continuously expand our portfolio and infrastructure while staying true to our values of trust, competence and reliability. By focusing on innovation, transparency and long-term partnerships, we strive to contribute to a circular economy and a cleaner, more sustainable energy future.

Mission

We are committed to supporting the energy transition by trading and supplying sustainable, waste-based feedstocks for biofuel production. Our mission is to reduce carbon emissions by enabling our partners to access reliable, certified raw materials that help achieve significant CO₂ reduction values.

Our Team

At Gelsenkraft our team is the foundation of our success. Bringing together dedicated professionals with deep expertise in trading, logistics and renewable energy, we share a common passion for sustainability and the development of waste-based biofuels. Our specialists combine market knowledge, technical know-how and logistical experience to deliver reliable, high-quality services to our partners worldwide.
