Beyond fuel expertise
As the second largest oil distributor in France (10.8 million m3 supplied in 2022), SIPLEC has gained extensive expertise in the field of Energy over the years.
Our teams SIPLEC – E.Leclerc develop products and services designed to meet all requirements, with regard to quality and performance, at the best price.
- For individuals: fuel, Clairgaz conditioned gas, domestic heating oil, energy bonus incentive programs, electric charging stations
- For professionnals: fuels, fuel cards, energy efficiency programs
- For E.LECLERC Stores: natural gas, electricity, PV systems
- Besides, our subsidiary SODIPLEC, runs a network of 23 motorway service areas throughout France. They offer fuel and retail products at competitive prices, along with catering services. All our private label products (i.e Marques Repères, Sélection d’Experts, Biovillage, Nos Régions ont du Talent, Tissaia) are priced the same as in E.Leclerc stores.
We believe controlling and mastering our processes is crucial to success. Our energy management systems are tested every year, as part of the annual audits required by our certification ISO 9001-2015 (Fuel excluding motorway activities, bottled gas, fuel card, energy saving system), delivered by AFNOR.

SIPLEC, Partner in Energy Savings

About the Energy RewardsSince then, we’ve created additional energy-saving incentive projects for the E.Leclerc stores along with other entities, businesses, communities and legal entities. SIPLEC has developed a great deal of specific operations and partnerships on many programs, they promote:

Energy for Business
We offer a variety of custom solutions to better manage your company’s utility costs, regardless of the size of your business.
“Greener” fuels
We’re proud to say that we have been pioneering ” green ” fuels since 1994. Since then we’ve been looking for ways to include plant-based products in fuels, e.g. ethanol, FAME, ETBE.
In addition, we were the first ones to market 3 very specific biofuels, E10, B30 and E85 (“super ethanol”), now available in every E.LECLERC gas station.
All the alcohol and raw materials used to make biofuels comply with the quality and sustainability standards laid down by the European Union. They are free from palm and soybean oil.
