FincoEnergies and Scan Global Logistics partner on Biofuel Swap verifiable road transport CO₂e reductions
FincoEnergies and Scan Global Logistics (SGL) are strengthening their collaboration by implementing Biofuel Swap, a globally applicable solution for decarbonizing road transport. With Biofuel Swap, SGL offers its customers immediate emissions reductions – with no changes to vehicles, infrastructure, or daily logistics operations – through utilizing certified HVO100, a 100% biodegradable fuel, enabling verified, scalable CO₂e reductions.
The partnership between FincoEnergies and Scan Global Logistics is built on a successful pilot project launched in 2023 that tested and optimized insetting solutions for road transport, laying the groundwork for the implementation of the Biofuel Swap initiative in 2025.
Closing the need-solution gap in road transport decarbonization. The road transport sector remains heavily reliant on fossil fuels, while continuing to struggle with the limited availability of sustainable fuels, such as HVO, along key routes. Additionally, logistics service providers often cannot use physical renewable fuels within their owned or contracted assets, creating a gap between the need for emission reductions and their practical implementation.
Biofuel Swap presents a solution to this challenge by decoupling the environmental benefits from the physical use of biofuel. While HVO100 is physically used in trucks in the Netherlands to create real, in-sector emission reductions, a robust book-and-claim approach enables customers worldwide to claim verified Scope 3 emission reductions. Moreover, customers receive transparent, traceable CO₂e data that is easy to integrate into their own CO₂ reporting.
Easy, available, actionable solution. According to the UN’s Emissions Gap Report 2025*, longer-lead decarbonization technologies and enabling infrastructure are not scaling at the pace required to meet climate targets, underscoring the need for immediate solutions. With Biofuel Swap, SGL offers a readily available and actionable alternative to help customers achieve their sustainability goals. As the solution requires no operational changes, it is easily implemented worldwide. HVO100 adds to SGL’s Low Carbon Solution catalogue, which already includes ocean biofuel, Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), and electric vehicles, thus reinforcing SGL’s commitment to becoming a leader in sustainable transportation solutions across industries.
