The Bulk Energy Storage and Transportation (BEST) Company Limited has rebranded as BOST Energies, a move that aligns with the company’s commitment to supporting Ghana’s energy transition agenda.

Previously known as Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation (BOST) Company Limited, the board approved the name change in 2024 to enable the company to venture into alternative and renewable sources of energy.

According to current leadership, the rebrand reflects the need for broader action and strategic transformation.

In a statement issued on Friday, August 29, 2025, the company said it will build on its legacy while expanding its focus to include sustainable and cleaner operations.

Since its establishment in 1993, BOST has played a central role in securing Ghana’s strategic petroleum reserves and developing one of West Africa’s largest energy logistics networks.

Speaking on the rebrand, Afetsi Awoonor, Managing Director of BOST Energies, said: “Our world is changing, and so is Ghana’s energy landscape. At BOST Energies, we are not turning away from our petroleum mandate but are preparing for a future of energy diversity.

This rebrand signals our readiness to continue delivering reliable traditional logistics while investing in cleaner, more innovative operational solutions.”

To drive this ambition, the company has established a Green Transition and Alternative Fuels Department, dedicated to exploring opportunities in biofuels, Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), and hydrogen.

Additionally, BOST Energies is implementing several initiatives to reduce its environmental footprint, including Solar integration at depots to reduce emissions and dependence on the national grid, piloting storage and distribution solutions for hybrid and electric vehicles to enable clean and smart fuel distribution and waste reduction measures through digital and operational efficiencies.

The rebrand aligns directly with the Government of Ghana’s National Energy Transition Framework, underscoring the company’s commitment to supporting both national and regional sustainability goals.

Afetsi Awoonor added: “This is more than a name change; it is a commitment to growth, sustainability, innovation, and operational excellence. BOST Energies is the bridge between Ghana’s energy heritage and its energy future.”
