Biodiesel
This project aims at decreasing utilization of the fossil fuel in Armenia through introduction of eco friendly biodiesel to Armenian market.
Biodiesel is produced from used cooking oil. It’s 20% to 30% cheaper than fossil diesel. This eco friendly fuel requires no vehicle modifications or special fueling equipment – just pump and go. Compared with fossil diesel, use of biodiesel results in low amount of regulated pollutants (nitrogen oxides (NOx), particulate matter (PM), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), etc.) and dramatically decreases GHG emissions to the atmosphere.
In 2017 this idea won the National finals of Climate Launchpad and we presented the project in Cyprus during the European final.
