Preem exports biodiesel from Gothenburg refinery

The plan is to achieve a production capacity of 2.5 million cubic meters of renewable fuel by 2027.

Preem’s fully renewable HVO, produced at its Gothenburg refinery, has been exported for the first time in the company's history.

This is an important milestone on Swedish company's journey towards a climate-neutral value chain by 2035.

By restructuring production at the refineries in Lysekil and Gothenburg, the plan is to achieve a production capacity of 2.5 million cubic meters of renewable fuel by 2027, followed by a subsequent doubling of capacity by 2035.

The primary focus is on phasing out fossil fuels and replacing them with renewable aviation fuel (SAF) and biofuels adapted for road transport (HVO).

The fully renewable HVO stands out as a unique product with excellent refrigeration properties, making it particularly well-suited for the winter climate in the Nordic region and northern Europe.
