Fuel Knowledge Hub

Understanding fuel and its environmental impact

Understanding Fuel

Did You Know?

🌡️ Outside temperature affects efficiency - vehicles run best around 20°C (68°F)

🚗 Driving at 50mph uses less fuel than 70mph due to air resistance

⚡ Modern vehicles don't need warming up - idling wastes fuel

🎯 Correct octane rating prevents engine damage, doesn't boost performance

Fuel Types

E5: Standard unleaded petrol with 5% ethanol. Best for pre-2011 vehicles.

E10: 10% ethanol blend, suitable for most post-2011 vehicles. Check compatibility.

B7: Standard diesel with up to 7% biodiesel, suitable for all diesel vehicles.

Environmental Impact

Carbon Footprint

Each litre of petrol produces about 2.31kg of CO₂, while diesel produces 2.68kg. Using E10 can reduce your carbon footprint by up to 2% compared to E5.

Reduce Impact

  • • Consider carpooling or using public transport when possible
  • • Regular vehicle maintenance reduces harmful emissions
  • • Switch to E10 if your vehicle is compatible
