With sustainability at the forefront of business decisions today, many companies are turning to alternative fuels like HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) as a greener option for their operations. HVO boasts numerous benefits, including reduced greenhouse gas emissions and improved air quality, making it a desirable choice for companies looking to reduce their environmental impact.
As with any fuel delivery, accurate metering and measurement is essential and that’s where OptiMate comes in – the electronic metering system that helps customers deliver HVO fuel sustainably and with precision.
In this blog post, we will explore the benefits of choosing HVO for your business and why OptiMate is the best way to go when it comes to greener fuel and increased sustainability.
What is HVO?
HVO heating oil is a renewable liquid fuel made using hydrogen and has a chemical structure that is very similar to kerosene. It can be made from a variety of vegetable oils and certified waste fats. Being a renewable heating oil, it is much more environmentally friendly than existing heating oil options.
Not only is HVO renewable, but it is also a high-quality fuel that meets European standard EN15940. This means it can be used in existing heating oil systems without any modifications, and it is a drop-in replacement for traditional heating oil.
Additionally, HVO has a low carbon intensity compared to traditional heating oil, meaning it releases fewer carbon emissions during combustion. This makes it an excellent choice for businesses looking to reduce their carbon footprint and increase their sustainability efforts.
