Neste Green 100 diesel on trial
In Finland refining and marketing company Neste Oil has begun testing its Neste Green 100 diesel as transport fuel.
Neste Green 100 diesel is made from 100% renewable raw materials which have between 40 and 80% lower carbon dioxide emissions than conventional diesel. Its tailpipe emissions are also lower.
Neste Oil’s executive vice president Sakari Toivola said: ‘This is the first time anywhere that a premium renewable diesel fuel will be tested across a range of different cars.’
From mid-May to the middle of summer test drivers recruited from outside the company will commence trials on the biofuel, while workers from inside Neste Oil have commenced tests on Neste Green 100 diesel that will continue after mid-summer. Drivers will fill up at selected Neste Oil stations in Greater Helsinki.
‘The majority of Neste Oil stations in Finland already offer Neste Green diesel, which contains a minimum of 10% renewable diesel blended with conventional diesel fuel,’ says Sakari Toivola. ‘We plan to make Neste Green 100 diesel, which is produced form 100% renewable sources, available to motorists as soon as possible.’
