Our Story
For nearly a century, the Clark family has proudly served communities across Western Washington, building a reputation for reliability, innovation, and customer care. Founded in 1929 as Genesee Coal & Stoker (when coal was the primary source of residential heat in Seattle) the company has grown alongside the region it serves. Today, Genesee Energy remains a third-generation, family-owned business committed to delivering dependable energy solutions while continuing the Clark family’s long tradition of service to the community.
Genesee Energy is now a full-service heating and fuel provider serving King, Pierce, Island, Snohomish, Clallam, Kitsap, and Thurston Counties. The company specializes in Bioheat® fuel (a cleaner blend of traditional heating oil and renewable biodiesel) while also offering expert propane services, commercial fueling solutions, and professional HVAC service. With decades of experience and a forward-looking approach to energy, Genesee Energy combines trusted family values with modern expertise to keep homes and businesses running safely, efficiently, and sustainably.

We used Genesee Fuel for years, but moved into renewables with solar and heat pump so have to abandon Genesee and its service. During our time with Genesee, we met a lot of great people, techs who knew what they were doing and gave it the best they had, office staff who understood our needs. Never had a question about the service and so highly recommend Genesee. Thanks to all the people at Genesee for the service you gave and kindness you showed us. Jack Remick Seattle [ Read Less – ]

I’ve been using Genesee Energy since 2003, and they’ve been a consistently reliable company to work with over all these years. They’ve kept my older furnace running with competent technicians, thoughtful service, and reasonable repair costs. I’ve always felt that they were focused on keeping things working rather than pushing me toward unnecessary replacements. The people really make the difference. Dan, the service manager, has always been patient and kind, taking the time to walk me through different issues and explain what’s needed when repairs come up. And every time I’ve had the pleasure of speaking with Savannah in the office, she’s been friendly, helpful, and understanding. She is a true standout in customer service—the kind of person who makes you feel like you’re in good hands. After more than 20 years, I’m grateful for the trust I’ve been able to place in Genesee Energy. Good service matters, but good people matter even more—and they have some really good people.
