In Ireland, Certa is expanding availability of its 20% HVO blended kerosene heating fuel to 100,000 households across Dublin, Kildare and Louth. The Sustainable Energy Agency of Ireland’s National Heat Study projected that by 2030, HVO and other biofuels, used in heating could provide 400 GWh of renewable energy in 2023 and 1,100 GWh of heating in 2050. The availability figures are based on data from the International Energy Agency. This represents only 1% to 4% of Ireland’s projected heat demand, and this supply does not even cover the demand for Ireland’s rural homes alone.
