About the project

Commercial fuels in the market are blended out of various constituents. Biomass-based components are part of practically all commercial fuels today (ethanol in gasoline, FAME/HVO in diesel, CNG/CBG mixtures). With an increasing demand for environmental communication business-to-business as well as business-to-consumer there is also an increasing demand for generic, well-acknowledged best available environmental data for vehicle fuels, both in terms of production resource efficiency and emissions, as well as emissions from use in vehicles.

Through this project, Swedish companies in the transport sector as well as other sectors will get access to a high-quality up-to-date data source containing such data. The project setup will promote long-term collaboration of main stakeholders in Sweden for such data under the f3 structure.
