What is HVO100? HVO100 (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) Fuel is made from 100% renewable items and is free from any fossil fuels. It is produced by using sustainably sourced vegetable and animal matter to ensure its production does not have any negative impact on the environment. In Europe, this is covered under the EN15940 Standard. As HVO100 has a chemical structure similar to diesel fuel, HVO can be easily substituted for diesel without any impact on the efficiency of your equipment. HVO is seen as the best and easiest paraffinic option available to help reduce your carbon emissions immediately. Can your equipment use HVO100?
