Howard Tenens is a haulage company looking to reduce its carbon emissions. It has achieved fuel efficiency gains in the past decade through driver training and technology. It is now considering low carbon fuel options like biodiesel, hydrogen, and biomethane. Biomethane appears most suitable as it can be used in existing vehicles, has European precedent, and provides emissions reductions. Howard Tenens has already converted some vehicles to biomethane and seen environmental benefits but seeks government support through fuel duty parity and infrastructure investment to further incentivize the transition.
