FinCo Fuel Group and Gane Energy have signed an agreement to introduce a green methanol blend for heavy-duty engines, with an aim of reducing greenhouse gases and exhaust emissions. The  liquid fuel will be used in new and retrofitted heavy-duty diesel engines. The partnership hopes to tackle climate challenges by delivering climate-neutral fuels to meet both present and future emissions regulations.

The methanol blend will not produce soot during combustion, unlike diesel or heavy fuel oil. The methanol/water-based fuel, instead, performs like diesel, but provides a cleaner solution with no loss in performance and also restricts engines from having to be replaced in their fleets.

FinCo Fuel Group and Gane Energy are currently identifying demonstrations with customers in different market sectors which will be commencing in 2023.
