Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO)
Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) is a type of renewable fuel made from plant-based oils or fats, such as vegetable oils or waste fats. Through a process called hydrotreating, these oils are purified and chemically transformed into a high-quality diesel substitute that can be used in existing engines. HVO burns cleaner than traditional fossil diesel, emitting fewer pollutants and greenhouse gases. It is considered a sustainable alternative because it relies on renewable resources and can help reduce carbon footprints in transportation while maintaining engine performance and compatibility with current diesel infrastructure.
