Crown Worldwide Group to Power UAE Fleet With Biofuel as Part of Drive to Cut Emissions
Locally sourced waste cooking oil – turned into biodiesel – will be used in vehicles to deliver a carbon saving equivalent to planting 150 trees in 2024.
Jason Evans, General Manager – Middle East, Crown Worldwide Group said;
“Across the globe, Crown Worldwide Group is committed to reducing its environmental impact. Like many other businesses in our sectors, we are on a journey to net-zero, and actively working to decarbonize our operations, while maintaining a high-quality service.”
“Knowing that we can’t achieve this alone, partnering with innovative organizations like Neutral Fuels is key to our approach. I’m excited to be teaming up with them to begin reducing the CO2 emissions of our vehicle fleets in the UAE, and in turn, helping our clients to reduce their Scope Three emissions.”
“And this is just the start. We have a series of initiatives to reduce both our Scope One and Scope Two emissions as we continue to innovate and invest in our pursuit of net-zero.”
Charles Gardner, Chief Operating Officer, Neutral Fuels commented;
“We are excited to partner with Crown Worldwide Group as it strengthens its commitment to sustainability. The implementation of Neutral Fuels’ biodiesel showcases its dedication to decarbonisation and alignment with the UAE governments’ plan to reduce emissions by forty percent by 2030.
“Crown Worldwide Group is setting an example for other logistics companies to follow, proving environmental responsibility and operational excellence can go hand in hand.”
