UK – UK-based energy company, Certas Energy UK Ltd (owned by DCC Plc), headquartered in Warrington, Cheshire, used the 2025 RTX Expo (June 24 – 26) to announce a new seven-figure investment to further expand its nationwide roll-out of hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) across its depot network. In just two months before RTX, Certas Energy added six new HVO supply points, bringing the total to 28 depots across the UK, with more to follow. This expansion includes key locations such as Whitby, Fort William, Porthmadog, Braintree, Sheffield, and, for the first time, stocking on the Isle of Wight. The result is an estimated additional one million litres of renewable fuel added to the network, both to meet rising demand and to support the company’s own decarbonisation efforts through increased use in its operating fleet. This investment strengthens its position in the low-carbon fuel market in the UK.

HVO is a drop-in replacement for standard diesel, capable of reducing carbon emissions by up to 90 percent, making it a critical transitional fuel for fleet operators navigating stricter environmental targets.
