Itabus travels with Enilive’s biofuel

Itabus, an Italian transport company, is now using Enilive’s HVOlution diesel biofuel to power its fleet of next-generation buses.   The new agreement strengthens the collaboration between Enilive, Eni’s company focused on mobility products and services, and Itabus, a long-distance coach transport company that has been part of the Italo group since last May.

The agreement, which follows a prior  agreement made by the two companies in 2021, aims to strengthen and enhance the shared commitment of Itabus and Enilive to sustainable mobility. Under the new agreement, 100 Itabus buses will use Enilive’s HVOlution diesel to transport passengers around Italy. HVOlution is Enilive’s diesel biofuel, which is100% made from renewable raw materials, in compliance with the European Renewable Energy Directive. The fuel is produced at Enilive’s biorefineries in Venice and Gela, mainly by processing waste products, including used cooking oils and animal fat, as well as residue from the agri-food industry. HVOlution is a hydrogenated vegetable oil suitable for all approved engines* and is also available at over 1,000 Enilive service stations.

Itabus, with its fleet of 100 latest-generation buses, considers sustainability as one of its key pillars. The company, which recently unveiled a range of new initiatives, currently serves 14 regions, offering 500 departures daily from over 85 Italian cities. Major cities, strategic infrastructure hubs (such as high-speed rail stations and airports), small villages and tourist destinations are connected daily to ensure shared, safe, and comfortable travel.
