Neste Oil Corporation and Austrian oil and gas group, OMV, are in negotiations aimed at accordingly architecture a all-embracing bulb to aftermath next-generation biodiesel fuel. According to a announcement of understanding, the 200,000 t/a ability will be amid at OMV´s Schwechat oil refinery in Austria, with assembly alpha at the end of 2008 at the earliest.
The bulb will be based on Neste Oil´s proprietary NExBTL technology, which is able of bearing high-quality agent ammunition from a array of renewable raw materials, such as vegetable oil and abominable fat. NExBTL biodiesel offers above ammunition properties, and outperforms accepted biodiesel and agent grades currently on the market, according to contempo tests by arch able engine manufacturers.
NExBTL technology produces constructed biofuels as authentic by EU Directive 2003/30/EC, accoutrement the development of biofuels in the European Union. The EU encourages affiliate states to access biofuel acceptance to 5.75% of all gasoline and agent ammunition acclimated in cartage by 2010. Neste Oil´s and OMV´s collective assembly bulb will be tailored to accommodated the needs of this challenge.

The European Commission to adduce a charge on the advance of the use of activity from renewable sources
Neste Oil welcomes the carriage biofuels targets and the austere ecology sustainability belief for biofuels proposed by the European Commission. Neste Oil agrees that no feedstocks should be acceptable if acquired from high-biodiversity acreage (forest with no cogent animal intervention) or acreage with top carbon banal (e.g close wetlands).
Neste Oil´s own NExBTL renewable agent will accommodate to the sustainability belief proposed by the Commission. It is the world´s cleanest agent and has the abeyant to use a advanced array of feedstock. Neste Oil continues to advance its next bearing ammunition technology that can aswell use addition non-edible feedstocks such as copse chip.
"We accept that top standards of sustainability are capital to the continued appellation success of the renewable fuels industry. Renewable fuels fabricated from acceptable feedstocks can accomplish an important addition to abbreviation carriage CO2 emissions," says Mr Risto Rinne, President and CEO of Neste Oil Corporation.
"Bio-feedstock producers, bearing countries and users should plan appear acknowledged rules that artlessly accomplish unsustainable biofuels assembly bad business. Sustainability should actualize the base for assisting business operations in biofuels. These account should be complete into legislation.

However, Neste Oil believes that the angle does not yet accomplish technology neutrality for biofuels. The EU should appraise technologies and feedstocks based on complete science, ie. on their ability and greenhouse gas balance. The EU should accumulate the aperture accessible to technologies and feedstocks which do not even abide today to animate added innovation.
Climate change is a all-around botheration and needs all-around solutions. To accommodated its targets, Europe will charge feedstocks and biofuels which are produced alfresco Europe.
"All in all, it is abating that the agitation is entering a added complete date and some of the ´silver bullet´ advertising is accepting displaced by a added abstaining appraisal that there will be acceptable and bad biofuels", said Mr Rinne.

About NExBTL
NExBTL, produced by Neste Oil, is the cleanest renewable agent ammunition accessible today. It offers cogent reductions in both greenhouse gas emissions and abuse compared to deposit agent fuel. The absolute reductions in greenhouse gases depend on the raw abstracts acclimated in production. Tests accept apparent NExBTL to aftermath 40-60% beneath CO2 throughout the accomplished artefact lifecycle. NExBTL can be acclimated in any blend, and it does not crave modifications to the absolute car pool. It can aswell be acclimated 100% after blending.
