*If you use less than 2500 litres/year

Large Volumes Until budget 20p duty derogation on

biofuels produced from waste (37.95p/l

instead of 57.95p/l)

Also double Renewable Transport Fuel

Obligation certificates which are

tradeable

Bus Service Operators Grant higher for

biofuels (was 14p/l higher)

Community Minibus Case Study

One tank conversion least problematic on multiple user vehicles

Older vehicles best to convert however generally require more maintenance

Converted vehicles, like all vehicles are not “white goods”

Method of regularly filling vehicle with biofuel needs to be considered
