en.Wedoany.com Reported, Italian passenger transport company Itabus announced that its entire fleet of 100 buses is now using HVOlution diesel biofuel supplied by Enilive. This fuel is made from 100% renewable raw materials and complies with the European Renewable Energy Directive standards. HVOlution is a hydrotreated vegetable oil, primarily produced at Enilive's biorefineries in Venice and Gela, using waste materials such as used cooking oil, animal fats, and residues from the agri-food industry. The fuel is suitable for all validated diesel engines and is available at over 1,550 Enilive service stations across Italy. Data shows that compared to reference fossil fuels, the average CO2 equivalent emissions from Enilive HVO used for traction purposes in 2025 were reduced by 79.5%, contributing to the decarbonization of the transport sector.

The collaboration between Itabus and Enilive began in 2021 when Itabus commenced operations in Italy and deepened in 2024 through testing and the introduction of HVOlution diesel. In 2025, Itabus vehicles traveled approximately 20 million kilometers, consuming 5.7 million liters of Enilive fuel, of which 3 million liters were HVOlution. The average biofuel usage rate reached 53% and is on an upward trend: in December 2025 alone, HVO accounted for 75% of the fleet's refueling volume. It is expected that the number of refueling instances using pure biofuel will further increase in 2026, reflecting both parties' commitment to sustainable mobility. Itabus services average 900 kilometers per trip, and Enilive biofuel is used on routes to European destinations, including new destinations such as Zurich, Paris, Lyon, Lugano, Barcelona, Montpellier, Perpignan, Grenoble, Chambéry, and Ljubljana.

Francesco Fiore, CEO of Itabus, stated: "We have always been committed to sustainability, and our collaboration with Enilive is proof of this. Today, the entire fleet uses HVOlution diesel biofuel, reducing emissions, and we are extending this change abroad through our international services. We believe the partnership with Enilive will continue to develop successfully." Stefano Ballista, CEO of Enilive, commented: "Itabus is a key player in the road passenger transport sector, and their experience shows that HVOlution diesel biofuel provides an effective solution for long-distance collective transport. For customers like Itabus, we are rapidly increasing the number of Enilive service stations, offering renewable raw material diesel and innovative services, such as the 1,200 Enilive Cafés and the new ALT Stazione del Gusto restaurant."
