Fuel companies sell fuel. They aren't burning it. The fuel companies' customers would be the ones responsible for the emissions.

They sell fuel having prepared it for burning, put it in tankers, and sent it to sites that pour it into the machines that burn it. Ergo they are responsible for its impacts, and should be taxed, regulated and penalised accordingly. The entire environmental impact should be on the producer and seller, and fully priced into their sales. Customers would then be incentivised to find a more economic, and less impactful fuel.
