In the UK, F1 team Mercedes-AMG Petronas announced an extended use of HVO100 as part of its ambition for a 100% biofueled European logistics season in 2024.
In 2022 and 2023 the fleet of Mercedes-Benz Actros trucks were powered by the alternative HVO100 fuels, and last season helped the team achieve a 67% reduction in itsemissions.
In 2024, the team said that the generators powering hospitality and engineering trucks will also be powered by HVO100.
Datuk Sazali Hamzah, Executive Vice President and Chief Executive Officer of PETRONAS Downstream said: “In addition to working on delivering sustainable fuel for the Formula One cars by 2026, we continue to progress in our efforts to reduce carbon footprint within other parts of the motorsport ecosystem, including travel and logistics.
