Volvo Trucks is expanding its range of models adapted for B100 biodiesel. This move is in line with the company's strategy to reduce the impact of trucks on the climate. B100 is now available for a wide range of engines in Volvo FL, FE, FM, FMX, FH, and FH16 models. "Our clients are asking for solutions that will help them reduce carbon dioxide emissions, and renewable fuels are an attractive option—it's simply an effective way to reduce CO2 emissions from transport here and now," says Jan Hjelmgren, director of product management and quality at Volvo Trucks. The reduction in CO2 emissions from using biodiesel ranges from 30% to 70% compared to traditional diesel, depending on the type of raw material used to produce the fuel. The current range of medium and heavy Volvo trucks is offered with powertrains fueled by diesel, biodiesel, HVO, CNG (compressed natural gas), LNG (liquefied natural gas), Bio-CNG, Bio-LNG, and electricity.

While the popularity of electric vehicles (#EVs) faces an intense debate, McKinsey & Company predicts that demand for #sustainablefuels could quadruple by 2050 under the most ambitious scenario ⛽ ❗ Alternative fuels, including conventional #biofuels (such as ethanol and fatty acid methyl ester), as well as more advanced drop-in fuels like hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) and synthetic fuels (such as e-kerosene), serve as valuable allies in decarbonizing hard-to-abate transportation sectors. Both the aviation and commercial vehicle fleets could benefit from sustainable fuels, providing a viable alternative for reducing emissions from legacy internal combustion engine vehicles. Furthermore, these innovations can complement electrification efforts, especially since the transition to zero-emission vehicles may not occur rapidly enough to meet ambitious government targets.

https://lnkd.in/gKasu_ty Now all that New Zealand needs is a Renewable biogas supply to fuel them! This option makes a whole lot more sense than either Electric or Hydrogen and the raw material to produce this is all around us in the biodegradable waste streams from our primary processing and if we need more raw material, we can grow it! So why is biogas so ignored in the mainstream?
The most ignored fuel in history, finally in an engine: It’s neither hydrogen nor electric

Director - Low Carbon Truck Consultancy | Minimising the impact of freight transport on the climate whilst minimising the impact of climate policy on freight transport.
Calling all truckers. I am part of a team working on a project for the Department for Transport looking at the barriers to deploying higher bio-content fuels in trucks. Higher bio-content, or renewable fuels, relates to both biodiesel (FAME) and HVO. 2nd generation biodiesel (FAME) and its blends are: B7 as available in forecourts, B10, B20-30 and B100 all available for bulk deliveries - these fuels can require some small technical adaptions but can be very cost effective. HVO is available in limited forecourts and for bulk delivery. It is very flexible and can replace diesel up to 100% with no technical considerations although it comes at a cost premium compared to diesel. Any commercial vehicle operators are encouraged to share you views on how we could increase the volume of these fuels used to support decarbonisation efforts alongside zero tailpipe solutions. To take the survey please follow this link and feel free to share: https://lnkd.in/eWRHKUTS #netzero #trucks #hgv #logistics #alternativefuels #hvo #biodiesel #emissions #transport #haulage

Unlocking the potential of 'blending' is pivotal in our journey towards decarbonizing fossil-based energy sector. By blending petroleum diesel with biodiesel and kerosene jet fuel with sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), we are taking significant strides in reducing carbon emissions. This innovative approach allows us to leverage existing infrastructure and technology while making substantial progress in lowering our carbon footprint. #Decarbonization #Sustainability #EnergyTransition #energy #renewable #renewableenergy #biofuel #saf #biodiesel #sustainability #aviation #sustainableaviation Image source: energy.gov
