Alléo Energy first commercial facility produces renewable diesel from wood waste

KUALA LUMPUR, March 16 (Bernama) -- Alléo Energy has announced a significant milestone in the production of renewable fuels.

Alléo’s first commercial facility has produced renewable diesel made entirely from wood waste. This fuel has been independently tested by Intertek Testing Laboratories and is certified as D975 compliant.

This diesel was produced from a waste feedstock that can be upgraded into other products such as Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF).

The diesel produced is considered carbon-negative from a full life cycle perspective. The fuel produced is high in energy density which is a key differentiator from other attempts at cellulose-to-fuels conversion technologies.

“The game-changing quality of our product is very significant,” reflects Simeon Chow, Alléo Chief Executive Officer in a statement.

“What we have accomplished at Alléo is one of the most sought-after goals in the energy sector: to produce a truly sustainable fuel from wood waste.

“Further, I want to emphasise that this fuel can be used in existing diesel engines, without blending, and without modification of the engine.”

Alléo Energy is a renewable energy and renewable commodities company with a mission to revolutionise the renewable liquid fuel industry by converting wood-waste into 100 per cent renewable high value commodities.
