Södra to implement infrastructure initiative with RME

June 13 2012  As an alternative to diesel, Södra is introducing the fossil-free fuel RME, rapeseed methyl ester, for its own timber trucks, loaders and fork lift trucks at five of its fuelling stations in Sweden.

“The objective is to reduce overall fuel costs for Södra and at the same time provide a more eco-friendly fuel,” said Henrik Brodin, Project Manager for Södra’s RME initiative.The introduction of RME is very much in line with the Södra business model, where the use of fossil-free and renewable products is a key issue,” said Klara Helstad, Sustainability Manager at Södra.Södra has entered into agreements concerning the supply of RME, manufactured in Sweden. From June, RME will be available alongside diesel at Södra’s five biggest fuelling stations in Mönsterås, Mörrum, Värö, Kinda and Långasjö.Transport companies, which have agreements with Södra, are also being offered the opportunity to fill up with RME at the stations.Södra’s aim is for RME to account for at least half of all the fuel used by Södra in Sweden within a year.
