Sustainable fuels

We support the energy transition by using our market leading position to advance the availability of sustainable fuels.

From pioneering and launching bioLPG in Europe, to piloting rDME trials in Germany, and taking the first delivery of bioLNG in Italy, SHV Energy has been at the forefront in developing alternatives beyond fossil LPG.

Today bioLPG is available to customers in the majority of our European markets as a drop in solution

And we continue to progress other sustainable fuels by collaborating with partners and using our scale and market-leading position to help drive take-up and accessibility

Sustainable solutions

What are sustainable fuels?

Sustainable fuels replace or greatly reduce the mining or drilling of fossil fuels from below the earth’s surface. They are produced from renewable and/or alternative feedstocks, such as plant, vegetable or industrial waste.

We’re committed to growing our supply of sustainable fuels.

Our sustainable ambition

SHV Energy is proud to supply our customers around the globe with decentralised, safe, lower-carbon, and cleaner energy. We believe that sustainable fuels will play a central role in transitioning to a carbon-neutral world.

We work closely with our employees, customers, suppliers, and partners to continuously identify new solutions and make them available.

The use of new, renewable and lower-carbon feedstocks, such as biomass, agricultural, residential and industrial waste products, provide enormous opportunity for us and our partners and customers. We work with feedstock providers, technology suppliers and policy makers to ensure that biobased gas innovation continues to prosper. We welcome sustainable, high-quality and safe biogas initiatives, particularly those that provide cleaner, lower-carbon energy for consumers living or working beyond the natural gas grid. In turn, we remain committed to providing a valuable, safe energy supply for our ever-growing customer base.

Case study

SHV Energy, SkyNRG and KLM announce a project to build first European plant for sustainable aviation fuel.

SHV Energy has invested in a new plant for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) that will be developed by SkyNRG. SHV Energy will purchase the bioLPG that is produced.

Case study

Ulster University collaboration - researching the energy solutions of the future.

We have a global portfolio of research and development projects. We are particularly focused on the area of novel bio-based transformation processes for the production of bioLPG and other biogases from renewable sources of feedstock.
