EthaDrive was launched in Norrköping on 3 October and is a world-unique, rolling showcase for climate-smart heavy transport. Ethanol-powered trucks provide access to the world’s largest biofuel, which can reduce carbon emissions by 90 per cent compared with diesel, and which is already produced on a large scale in Sweden. With the vehicle fleet from Scania and the Swedish-produced biofuel ED95, the project is powerful evidence that heavy, long-haul transport can also be readjusted to reduce its climate impact.
Within the EthaDrive project, a fleet of ethanol-powered trucks and associated tank infrastructure will be established in and around Östergötland. EthaDrive will become a global exhibition of world-leading Swedish biofuel technology, including Lantmännen Agroetanol’s biorefinery in Norrköping.
Companies interested in being a part of EthaDrive and taking part in the offering within the project, such as leasing of vehicles, are welcome to notify their interest as soon as possible via ethadrive.se.
