In addition to Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO), also known as Renewable Diesel, the plant will produce Synthetic Paraffinic Kerosene (SPK), also known as Sustainable Aviation Fuel or Biojet, and Green Naphtha, used in the chemical industry to make green plastic, among other products.
The agreement is part of the British company’s strategy to offer low-carbon fuel to customers in the road transport and aviation sectors and to neutralize 415 million tons of CO2 equivalent (tCO2e) related to the company’s operations and BP’s oil and gas production.
