<\/a> Adnoc Distribution to power <\/strong>UAE fleet with biofuel:<\/strong> Adnoc Distribution, the UAE's largest fuel retailer, will use B20 biofuel<\/a> to power its heavy vehicle fleet, which supplies fuels and liquefied petroleum gas to its corporate customers, the company announced in a press release<\/a>. The target is a 15% CO2 emission reduction from the fleet as part of the company\u2019s push to reduce its carbon intensity by 25% by 2030, said Adnoc distribution CEO Bader Al Lamki in the release. Adnoc allocated USD 15 bn<\/a> in January to fund its decarbonization goals.<\/p>\n

Adnoc and German startup Power ID have kicked off a pilot project to test the use of<\/strong> recycled used EV batteries<\/strong> in bid to cut emissions and costs in its remote production operations, according to a statement<\/a>. The EV batteries will be assembled into a comprehensive battery energy storage system (BESS). The BESS is estimated to hold up to 2 MW of power, and combines liquid cooling technology, silicon carbide convertors, and electric vehicle technology for the best possible energy management, allowing Adnoc to cut down on its diesel generators reliance used in power drilling, and reduce emissions by 25% and energy related expenses by 50%, to meet its net zero targets by 2045.<\/p>\n

ALSO FROM ADNOC-<\/strong> The company has awarded a contract worth over USD 400 mn to US oilfield technology company Baker Hughes for the supply of all-electric compressions systems for its low-carbon LNG plant in Abu Dhabi\u2019s Al Ruwais Industrial City, according to a statement<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A pioneer in low-carbon LNG:<\/strong> Al Ruwais\u2019 LNG plant will be the first LNG project in MENA to be powered by clean energy, making it one of the lowest carbon intensity LNG projects globally, according to Adnoc.<\/p>\n

Sadafco + NTSC will<\/strong> partner on fleet decarbonization: <\/strong>Sadafco, a food manufacturer, seller, and distributor in Saudi Arabia and the Middle East, is partnering with KSA\u2019s National Transportation Solutions Company (NTSC) to reduce carbon emissions and establish a future driven by Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEVs), Zawya<\/a> reports.<\/p>\n

In detail:<\/strong> The five-stage partnership will see NTSC help SADAFCO quantify its carbon emissions, assess ZEV availability in KSA, chart the transition plan, and use digital platforms like PowerBI to analyze its results, the report reads.<\/p>\n
