Italian Post office fleet to run on Enilive biofuels
Poste Italiane’s ground and air fleet will run on biofuels supplied by Enilive, Eni’s company dedicated to mobility services and products. This will accelerate Poste Italiane’s progress towards achieving its energy transition and carbon neutrality goals set for 2030. Giuseppe Lasco, General Manager of Poste Italiane, and Giuseppe Ricci, Energy Evolution Chief Operating Officer at Eni, have signed a Letter of Intent to start a collaboration based on the supply of biofuels produced in Enilive’s biorefineries by processing waste materials such as used cooking oils, animal fat and by-products from the agri-food industry. Under the agreement, Enilive will supply HVOlution (a diesel produced from renewable feedstock*) for road transport. HVOlution is available at over 1,000 Enilive service stations across Italy and its supply will be managed through Multicard commercial card service. For air transport, the collaboration involves the supply of JET A1+Eni Biojet at selected national airports in Italy. The fuel’s Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) component is produced by Enilive from 100% biological sources, and can be blended up to 50% with conventional jet fuel.
The agreement between the two companies, both partly owned by the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance, aims to support Italy’s energy transition in line with the environmental priorities of Poste Italiane’s strategic plan. This includes replacing its entire fleet with more sustainable vehicles and achieving carbon neutrality by 2030, bringing forward the already ambitious 2050 targets set by European regulations.
The agreement may be followed by further binding agreements to be entered into by the parties in accordance with applicable regulations, including those governing related party transactions.
