Bosch trialing fully renewable diesel fuel
- Bosch CEO Denner: “Renewable and synthetic fuels can help limit global warming.”
- Cars that chauffeur board members run on fully renewable diesel.
- Company vehicles can refuel with 33 percent renewable diesel at the Feuerbach, Schwieberdingen, and Hildesheim locations.
- Bosch aims to offer renewable and synthetic fuels at all its company filling stations in Germany.
Stuttgart, Germany. Since early November, the cars chauffeuring the management board members of Robert Bosch GmbH have been running on fully renewable diesel. Known as “C.A.R.E. diesel,” this fuel is synthesized mainly from by-products and waste materials. Its supplier Toolfuel claims that C.A.R.E. diesel reduces the CO2 emissions of these cars by around two-thirds, or 65 percent, from well to wheel. “Renewable and synthetic fuels can contribute greatly to limiting global warming. Their use has a much faster ecological impact than replacing vehicles and infrastructure, as existing filling stations can remain in operation,” says Dr. Volkmar Denner, CEO of Robert Bosch GmbH. For him, the consequences are clear: “Synthetic and renewable fuels should be factored into the CO2 fleet regulation for passenger cars and trucks.” Since C.A.R.E. diesel has yet to be included in the German law on the prevention of airborne pollution, it is not currently available at regular filling stations. In its trials with fully renewable diesel, Bosch wants to show if and how it could be adopted on a broad scale.
