MYTILINEOS invests in "green" fuel supplements to reduce its environmental footprint

Athens, Greece 13 May 2021 – MYTILINEOS (RIC: MYTr.AT, Bloomberg: MYTIL.GA, ADR: MYTHY US) through its Sustainable Engineering Solutions Business Unit (SES BU), announces its cooperation with Selcoms-i, a technology company which operates inter alia in the field of Energy Management Solution, incorporating alternative fuels (biofuels / sustainable fuel supplements).

Focusing on identifying sustainable and environmentally friendly solutions, this cooperation provides for the exclusive use and exploitation of BOOSTplus, an innovative and 100% green fuel supplement. It is essentially a "bio" fuel booster, consisting of 97% vegetable oil blend without the addition of synthetic chemicals. BOOSTplus conforms to all international fuel and biofuel standards when added to diesel engines. It improves engine performance significantly, while reducing CO2 emissions’ production through a more efficient fuel combustion. At the same time, it reduces particulate emissions, optimizes fuel usage, and improves long term engine wear-and-tear, contributing to overall OPEX reduction and thus achieving economies of scale.

As MYTILINEOS is committed to reduce the total direct and indirect CO2 emissions by at least 30% by 2030 and to achieve net zero emissions across its entire business activity by 2050, it seeks partnerships that are in line with its sustainable development strategy, with multiple benefits in every aspect of its activity. For example, BOOSTplus can be used on all fossil fuel powered plant equipment and vehicles, including:

  • on all construction and mining sites
  • at MYTILINEOS facilities.
  • and in the Company owned plant, equipment and vehicles.

Through this cooperation, both partners will work to promote this innovative fuel supplement, in order to aid companies and both public and private institutions that seek to reduce their impact on the environment and combat climate change by reducing their carbon footprint.
