HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oils) - hydrogenated vegetable oil - is a synthetic fuel. HVO can be produced from various sources such as waste oil or vegetable oils. The use of these energy sources has a major impact on overall greenhouse gas savings. Compared to fossil diesel, a CO2 reduction of 80 - 90 % is achieved.

The 100,000 liters of Green Diesel HVO used during the test phase alone will save at least 210,400 kg of CO2 emissions. If the test phase is successful, the use of HVO diesel will be used on a much larger scale in our company. The advantages of using HVO diesel at a glance:

• Significantly reduces NOx and particulate emissions during combustion
• Reduces CO2, HC, PAH, aldehyde and mutation-causing emissions
• Reduces particulate emissions of all sizes, including nanoparticles
• Reduces smoke development during cold starts and in winter conditions
• Effects are already clearly visible at mixing ratios of 10 to 30%
• Ash-free combustion ensures a long service life for fine dust filters
