fuel is fossil-free, biodegradable, it reduces the emission of particulates and has a sulphur emission of almost 0 grams/km. HVO can be obtained in various blend ratios with diesel.

Compressed natural gas is sold at 1 petrol stations we acquired in 2016 and at 1 petrol station we acquired in 2018. In addition, a charging point for electric cars was installed at the new petrol station in Middelburg. ISO14001: 2004 (environmental mana gement system) and VCA*: in June 2019 we successfully completed the recertification process of ISO 14001 at the new standard (2015), and we have now new VCA* and ISO 14001 certificates: 2015 in the name of OK Oliecentrale B.V. The preparations for recertifying with VCA in 2021 under the new standard (2017) are already in progress. All mandatory internal and external audits were carried out in 2020, including the external BRZO, WABO and ISCC audits (regarding the storage, transport and blending of biofuels).

The PMO has been completed and the report with the subsequent action to be taken has been submitted to the Works Council. The external testing of the new RI&E is expected to be completed in Q2 2021. In 2020, 1 environmental incident occurred and 2 incidents leading to injury, with a total number of deliveries amounting to 99,729.
