Event Overview
The 'Exploring Renewable Diesel Opportunities in Hong Kong as Transitional Fuel for Decarbonisation' event will take place on May 29, 2025, from 2:30 PM to 5:00 PM at the BEC Auditorium in Kowloon Tong.

Renewable diesel, a second-generation biofuel, is gaining traction due to its compatibility with existing engines and its potential to reduce CO2 emissions by up to 90%. The event will explore the market landscape, challenges, and opportunities for the adoption of biodiesel and renewable diesel in Hong Kong, based on comprehensive research conducted from September 2024 to March 2025.
