Greenergy

Greenergy was founded in 1992 to generate and provide fuels with a lower environmental impact.

The company was the first low-sulphur fuel supplier in the UK, Germany and Switzerland.

Since the early 90s, Greenergy's range has included ultra-low sulphur and sulphur-free, mineral-based fuels, designed to reduce emissions of air pollutants in urbanised areas.

Today, Greenergy is one of the UK's largest independent fuel suppliers and has a 5% share of the UK fuel market.

Greenergy's Fuels

With the focus of environmental attention moving to the change in climate, Greenergy have developed a range of low-carbon fuels called GlobalFuels. These fuels feature a blend of bio-fuels, such as bio-diesel or bio-ethanol, and mineral fuel, which has attached carbon credits.

Greenergy and Tesco

One of Greenergy's biggest clients is supermarket giant, Tesco. Greenergy have been supplying Tesco with GlobalDiesel since 2003, and now plans to introduce the UK's highest octane unleaded petrol, Super Unleaded 99 Octane. The Super-fuel will be rolled out to over 100 Tesco filling stations in London and the south east by mid November 2005.

The Super Unleaded 99 Octane offers an increased octane level that is higher than any other petrol supplier. It's also more environmentally friendly, and contains a special additive package that enhances engine cleaning, and as a result, delivers further long-term benefits.

Tesco are the first major petrol supplier to offer the most environmentally friendly petrol available in the UK. The fuel is a mix of high quality petrol components, blended to achieve 99 Octane. It includes 5% bioethanol, a renewable but also high-octane product which provides lower emissions of greenhouse gas and carbon dioxide.

Tesco have also announced that it expects to be selling bio-diesel from 40% of its sites from 2006.
