We understand that the government plans to phase out the sale of petrol and diesel cars by 2035 and to encourage consumers to move to electric cars. This requires enormous investment both to help consumers overcome the upfront cost of an electric car and to implement the infrastructure required to make them a workable option. The batteries used in electric cars also cause environmental concerns. Solutions to these problems are being sought and greener fuels, such as PeakHVO, are increasingly being employed as a part of the solution. PeakHVO offers an easy way to lower traffic emissions and increase the proportion of renewable energy used in transport without the need of further investment. It is a clean burning, renewable and sustainable fuel; which is available now to work alongside and in conjunction with the electric future.
