Certas Energy drives air quality improvements at Peel Ports Liverpool

Tackling the air quality problem has risen to the top of the Government’s agenda, putting the transport sector under significant pressure to clean up its act.

Making more responsible fuel choices is a practical first step to improving air quality and Certas Energy has now made Shell GTL Fuel available at its HGV refuelling station at the Port of Liverpool, providing hauliers with a cleaner alternative to conventional diesel. Once initial trials with hauliers have been completed later this month, the fuel will be made available for all users of the facilities at the Port.

National Bunker Manager for Certas Energy, Andrew Goodwin said, “The availability of Shell GTL Fuel in the North West provides an immediate solution for transport companies looking to reduce harmful emissions. Our decision to make Shell GTL Fuel available at the Port demonstrates our commitment to investment in the region, servicing high volumes of HGV traffic 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

“By offering a practical alternative to diesel that helps to improve air quality without compromising efficiency, Shell GTL Fuel has the potential to change the future of fuel usage in the UK and our goal is to make it available at other bunker sites in our network for both on-road and off-road engines. We are proud to be the only provider of the fuel in the UK and look forward to helping visitors to the Port of Liverpool make more responsible fuel choices, supporting a cleaner, healthier Northern Powerhouse.”
