Sustainability

Your business world is changing. It’s more important than ever to address the environmental impact from your fuel-based operations and assets, while remaining efficient and competitive today and tomorrow.

We recognise these challenges and partner with customers and resellers to develop and provide more and cleaner energy solutions. We are here to help you use and emit less.

Reducing CO₂ emissions and black smoke

Our most advanced fuels for heavy-duty vehicles and equipment, Shell FuelSave Diesel with DYNAFLEX Technology1, is designed to help lower CO2 emissions2 and black smoke3. Their dual detergent formulation works to clean up injectors from carbon deposits and prevent further build-up, enabling improved engine efficiency and less wasted energy2.

“On the advice of OCN, we switched to Shell FuelSave Diesel. The cleaning properties of the fuel are of great importance to us, given the intensive and crucial use of our machines. Equally important are the improved fuel economy (of up to 5%) and a corresponding reduction in the CO2 emissions we have achieved with Shell FuelSave Diesel4.”

Using biofuels

Transport companies are increasingly looking to use biofuels in their fleet operations to help reduce environmental impact and meet emission regulations. A consideration when using biodiesel is its susceptibility to water contamination and microbial growth. Shell FuelSave Diesel with DYNAFLEX Technology7 is designed to help keep fuel more stable in the presence of bio-components, thus increasing vehicle and equipment reliability8. They contain a special dehazer that promotes good water separation and reduced microbial growth8.

Proper storage and handling of biofuels is important for smooth operations. We can help with housekeeping advice based on Shell’s longstanding experience with storing, blending, and handling biofuels to supply customers around the world. Biofuels
