Renewable Diesel (HVO)
Renewable Diesel (HVO) is chemically similar to 10ppm Diesel, a middle distillate primarily used as a fuel in the road transport sector. Because of its chemical similarity, it can be treated as a drop-in replacement fuel – used either as part of a fuel blend or in its pure form, maintaining engine performance standards while also providing emission reduction benefits.
Mabanaft Limited is now a certified HVO supplier under the UK’s voluntary Renewable Fuel Assurance Scheme (RFAS), allowing us to share sustainability insights with customers for the renewable diesel we supply.
