As the journey towards Net Zero Carbon 2050 accelerates, choosing cleaner-burning fuels is crucial. Red diesel duty equalisation in April 2022 prompted the construction industry to seek alternatives to gas oil. At Certas Energy, we supply high-quality, efficient alternative fuels to help meet net zero targets:
- HVO: A drop-in diesel alternative that reduces CO2 emissions without engine or infrastructure changes.
- GTL Fuel: An innovative, cleaner fuel that is quieter than standard diesel, improves air quality and offers operational benefits as a FAME-free, winter-grade alternative to diesel.
- Therma35: An industrial heating oil that requires no equipment modifications and burns more slowly than conventional gas oil.
Explore more about our cleaner fuel alternatives and how they support your business’s net zero goals.

We’re right here with you on the journey to net zero. As the 2050 target becomes a bigger focus for all industries, preparing your construction business for the changes means you’ll be ready for whatever the future holds. Now is the time to explore alternatives, like GTL Fuel. Our gas-to-liquid fuel is suitable for commercial applications, it’s cleaner, quieter and lasts longer than traditional diesel. Reducing four main pollutants–Nitrogen oxides (NOx), Particulate matter (PM), Carbon monoxide (CO) and Hydrocarbons (HC)–GTL Fuel is a more planet-friendly choice for construction sites of all sizes than conventional fuels.
