Go GREEN without Compromise
Harvest Energy are delighted to confirm the official launch of Harvest BioDiesel B30. Harvest BioDiesel B30 has been blended using specially selected Diesel and BioDiesel grades (which themselves conform to EN 590 and EN 14214 respectively), yet have been blended together to create the UKs only high percentage BioDiesel blend that meets the EN 590 technical specification in full (with the exception of the FAME content). Harvest BioDiesel B30 therefore allows the user to reduce their CO2 footprint by as much as 18%*, reduce Sulphur emissions by as much as 90%* and yet in the majority of applications requires no engine modifications**.
Harvest BioDiesel B30 is available NOW, for either collection or delivery from our storage terminal in Dagenham, Essex. For further details on how your company can Go Green Without Compromise, or for a copy of our full specification of Harvest B30, please contact me on 020 7291 8694 or 07720 805233 or at simon@harvestenergy.co.uk where I will be happy to assist you with any queries you may have.

New Product - BioEthanol E85
Harvest Energy launches their latest ground breaking product, Harvest BioEthanol. BioEthanol is a liquid fuel made from plant material and recycled elements of the food chain. This is produced from crops such as cereals, oilseeds, sugar beet and fodder beet. Biofuels are safely and easily biodegradable and so are particularly well suited to environmentally sensitive areas like waterways.
The launch which was held in conjunction with Wm Morrison's Supermarkets PLC and Saab held at Morrison's Norwich store, was a great success, and marked the beginning of a further ten stores that Morrison's are planning to roll out across their Estate. At the moment, BioEthanol can only be used in flex-fuel vehicles including the Saab 9-5 BioPower and the Ford Focus FFV.
