Neste, PVG partner on lower-emission coprocessed kerosene for portable liquid-fuel heaters
Neste is offering a new coprocessed odorless heating kerosene as a lower-emission solution for portable liquid-fuel heaters.
The first order was delivered at the turn of the year to PVG, the European market leader in home-climate solutions, having its own liquids production plant in Ghent, Belgium.
This new heating liquid for portable liquid-fuel heaters will be launched to the consumer market in the next winter at the end of 2024.
PVG’s next-generation heating liquid, based on the coprocessed odorless heating kerosene from Neste, serves the users of liquid fuel-heaters in Europe.
It offers a more sustainable alternative to fossil-based heating fuels as raw materials from 100 percent renewable sources have been allocated to replace fossil raw materials during its production.
The lower-emission heating liquid is, therefore, a solution for households seeking to reduce the carbon footprint of their heating.
“The next generation heating liquids offer our consumers the highest quality while being safe, efficient, odorless and more sustainable than the fossil-based ones,” said Kristin Gehre, CEO of PVG. “I’m happy and proud that PVG is initiating the sustainable future for Qlima heating liquids.”
Ari Vouti from Neste’s Oil Products business unit added, “Neste wants to support its customers with solutions that help them achieve their sustainability targets and develop more sustainable products for their customers. We have been developing a wide variety of lower-emission solutions for decades, and this is the newest addition to our offering.”
The chemical composition and performance of Neste’s new lower-emission heating kerosene for fuel heaters is similar to conventionally used heater fluids.
It is suitable for all portable home heaters running on heating fluid, with no need for modifications to the heater.
Coprocessing of renewable raw materials is one of the solutions to addressing the ongoing climate change through reducing society’s reliance on fossil resources.
Neste’s coprocessed odorless heating kerosene for PVG’s lower-emission heating liquids offers a 50 percent to 85 percent reduction in greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions over the product’s lifecycle when compared to a fossil product as it has been produced with renewable raw materials on a mass-balance basis.
Neste’s coprocessed heating kerosene is an ISCC Plus-certified product.
Renewable content is allocated to coprocessed products according to the ISCC Plus mass-balancing approach.

Exploring sustainable fuel options like coprocessed kerosene is crucial for reducing emissions in portable heaters. To further enhance energy efficiency at home, consider incorporating a smart AC into your setup. A smart AC not only complements low-emission heating solutions but also allows for better control over your energy usage, leading to reduced costs and a smaller carbon footprint. Combining these technologies aligns well with the push toward greener, more efficient energy practices highlighted in the article.
I am impressed with the high quality of processed kerosene provided by the HVAC Contractor Plantation company. It ignites quickly and produces a consistent flame, ensuring my portable heater works perfectly even in colder weather.
