REPSOL PRODUCES AIRPLANE BIOFUEL FOR THE FIRST TIME IN SPAIN

Repsol has successfully completed the production of the Spanish market’s first batch of aviation biofuels. This milestone enables the company to advance in the production of low-carbon fuels for industries such as aviation, where alternatives like electrification are not viable today. The first batch consists of 7,000 tons of aviation fuel made from biomass which passed the demanding tests required by these products. It has a bio content under 5% in order to meet the quality standards established by international specifications and using it will prevent 400 tons of CO2 from being released into the atmosphere.
