Working in partnership
Alongside our customers and suppliers we’re applying our expertise in fuels chemistry to identify and optimise new technologies for viable sustainable fuels.
In the race to address climate change, the pressure is on to decarbonise the transport sector, which is responsible for about 25% of Europe’s GHG emissions – 1,100 million tonnes of CO2 – each year.
We’re helping tackle this challenge head-on by developing responsible and sustainable fuels that contribute towards the push for net zero impact.
We carry out full life-cycle analysis (LCA) in accordance with ISCC protocols to consider all the GHG emissions involved in, the processing of these into products, their use and the disposal or recycling of any waste. Without this approach it would be easy to reduce emissions at one stage only to make them worse elsewhere.
Alongside our customers and suppliers we’re applying our expertise in fuels chemistry to identify and optimise new technologies for viable sustainable fuels.
In collaboration with industry research bodies we’re carrying out programmes to develop and test a range of ‘future’ fuels, to aid research into industry-wide issues.
Our in-house laboratory is capable of forensic-quality fuel analysis across the range of standard fuel quality tests, providing accurate results beyond the range of ‘normal’ analysis.
We fuel our own fleet with advanced biofuels that offer GHG reductions of 90%. And we’re proof that this is achievable for everyone.
We’ve already created various bioethanol/bio-butanol/bio-ETBE blends of traditional fossil-based-gasoline, as well as very high bio-content gasolines with up to 100% bio-derived components.
Alongside this, we’re working on a range of sustainable fuels, with a focus on bio-derived fuels for gasoline and diesel, kerosene, HVO.
