Moeve has begun supplying 100% renewable diesel (HVO) at its Service Station on the airside of El Prat Airport—the area around the runways—making it the first company in Spain to feature HVO at an airport service station. This station fuels the entire fleet of ground vehicles operating at the facility, which means that all ground operations by airlines and handling companies at Barcelona’s airport will be able to decarbonize their activities from this point forward.
Compared with conventional fuels, HVO can cut CO2 emissions by up to 90% across its entire life cycle, from production to use. Its chemical composition is similar to that of fossil fuels, allowing it to be used immediately without any modifications to engines, storage, or distribution infrastructure.
