Planning to tour and seeking comfortable luxury sleeper coaches that also offer you the artist, manager, production & tour manager the option of reducing your carbon emissions by 90%?
The Numbers Speak Volumes
We’re taking significant strides in reducing our carbon footprint by switching from diesel to Hydro-treated Vegetable Oil (HVO) in our sleeper buses and band tour buses.
Transitioning to HVO fuel has been revolutionary. Traditionally, burning one litre of diesel fuel would release approximately 2.68kg of CO2. However, with HVO, this number dramatically drops to just 0.28kg per litre. This represents a monumental reduction of over 90% in CO2 emissions, showcasing HVO’s role as a cleaner and more sustainable alternative.
What Does This Reduction Mean?
To put it into perspective, for every 1,000 litres of fuel used, switching to HVO saves nearly 2,400 kg of carbon dioxide from entering our atmosphere. This is equivalent to the CO2 emissions from driving a standard passenger vehicle for over 6,000 miles (approximately 9,656 kilometres). By choosing HVO, we are significantly reducing the ecological footprint of every tour, making our sleeper bus travels cleaner and the air fresher for everyone.
Broader Implications
The choice to switch to HVO aligns with global efforts to reduce greenhouse gases and combat global warming. For the touring industry, traditionally a significant producer of carbon emissions due to the heavy reliance on diesel-powered transport, this shift represents a meaningful contribution to environmental protection.
Join Us in Making a Difference
We encourage other companies in the touring industry to join us in this environmental initiative. Switching to HVO not only helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions but also supports the overall goal of a sustainable planet. Our trucking partner Brian Yeardley Continental Limited also offer HVO as a direct replacement to diesel – perfectly aligning with our environmental strategy.
