60-minute session

The energy landscape is changing rapidly with a clear focus on reduced emissions, decarbonized energy, and increased efficiency. Sustainability is an important prerequisite for remaining qualified for existing business relationships and developing new customers and markets.

To anticipate these trends, Rolls-Royce with its product brand mtu has approved most of its generator sets for use with paraffinic diesel fuels EN15940, including HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil).

To support the customer’s journey towards sustainability, Rolls-Royce established the foundation for a strategic partnership with Neste, a worldwide leading HVO upstream player.

Working with Neste, we will promote the contribution of internal combustion engine technology towards sustainability—a transition from fossil fuel to renewable fuel, thus underlining and demonstrating the openness of this technology. Our common goal is to transfer existing technology to a greener century.

This session aims to bring transparency to alternative fuel solutions, focusing on HVO and how its use can be applied to our mtu power generation applications.

What you will learn:

  • Insights into mtu Rolls-Royce net zero roadmap focused on Power Generation
  • Background on European emission legislation
  • Categorize and explain the range of paraffinic fuels as alternatives to fossil fuels
  • HVO as today’s available solution
  • HVO testing results
  • Characteristics positively impacting genset performance

Our partner Neste enriches this webinar by adding information about NESTE MY Renewable Diesel, global availability, and pricing mechanisms.
