CEVA Logistics is implementing vegetable oil biofuel in its entire UK truck network, through a large-scale transition from diesel.
The global logistics provider is enabling its entire fleet of 450 vehicles to use the HVO 100 (hydro-treated vegetable oil) biofuel by the end of 2025.
The company’s ultimate goal with this initiative, and its investment at 18 sites across the UK, is to decarbonise road transport in Europe with logistics solutions, such as CEVA FORPLANET.
That investment will establish a nationwide sustainable logistics network covering the breadth of CEVA’s UK operations, enabling regular access to low carbon, alternative fuels and reduce the environmental impact of supply chains.
Currently, CEVA Logistics has approximately 200 HVO-powered vehicles in operation across the UK.
CEVA Logistics’ Ground & Rail for Northwest Europe Managing Director, Paul Farr, said: “As we embrace the shift towards more sustainable logistics, we are not just adapting to the future, we are shaping it.
“By investing now in solutions like HVO fuel, we are leading the way for a sustainable, more responsible industry.
“This tangible step today demonstrates our commitment to our customers, our communities and our planet.”
Since 2021, CEVA has used more than 11 million litres of HVO in the UK – cutting CO2e emissions by more than 25,000 tonnes.
CEVA’s HVO100 fuel is made from recycled cooking oil and is ISCC certified.
It does not contain palm oil and delivers approximately a 90 per cent reduction in CO2e emissions in the vehicles.
To date in 2025, CEVA has reduced CO2e emissions by 2,742 tons in the UK through the use of more than one million litres of HVO.
Throughout Europe, CEVA operates more than 550 trucks powered by HVO100 and B100 biofuels, saving nearly 14,000 tonnes of CO2e each year, which is equivalent to the annual carbon emissions from about 3,000 passenger vehicles.
