I-Red Diesel countdown: ukuqashwa kwemboni kanye nomkhakha wokwakha uyanxuswa ukuthi kuthathwe ezinye izindlela ezihlanzekile zikaphethiloli

Njengoba sekusele izinyanga ezingaphansi kweziyisithupha ukuthi abasebenzisi bakadizili obomvu bakhokhiswe intela kaphethiloli egcwele ukuze kubonakale izinto ezikhishwayo abazenzayo, Iqembu le-MHM inxusa abaholi bezimboni ukuthi basebenzise ezinye izindlela ezihlanzekile, ikakhulukazi i-HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil).

Udizili obomvu usetshenziswa kabanzi kwezolimo, zasolwandle kanye ukwakhiwa futhi nakuba njengamanje abanikazi bamabhizinisi behlomula ngesaphulelo sentela esingu-47p-per-litha ngokusetshenziswa kwayo, kusukela ngo-April 2022 kuzodingeka bashintshele ezindlekweni ezijwayelekile zikadizili 'ezimhlophe', ezikhokhiswa intela ngokugcwele. Lokho kusho ukuthi amabhizinisi amaningi azobe ekhokha imali ephindwe kahlanu emsebenzini kaphethiloli njengoba ekhokha njengamanje.         

Ngemuva kokukhuphuka kwezindleko kanye nomthelela omkhulu ku imvelo, umkhiqizi wemishini ehamba phambili emakethe, i-MHM Group inxusa amabhizinisi angaphakathi kwezimboni eziqashayo nezokwakha ukuthi acabangele ukushintshela kuphethiloli we-HVO njengendlela ehlukile, ehlala isikhathi eside.

HVO is a premium quality fuel made from 100% renewable raw materials, and can reduce CO₂ emissions by up to 90% when likened with fossil-fuel diesel. Every 1,000 litres of diesel burned produces 3.6 tonnes of greenhouse gas CO2, compared to just 195kg GHG CO2 for every 1,000 litres of HVO burned.

I-MHM Group isanda kuqinisekisa ukuthi yonke imishini yayo esebenzisa udizili, ikakhulukazi amajeneretha nemibhoshongo yokukhanyisa, manje isihambisana ngokugcwele, igunyaziwe futhi iphephile ukuthi isetshenziswe nophethiloli we-HVO.

Commenting on how the rental market can reduce its carbon footprint, the MHM Group’s Managing Director, Mat Llewellyn, said: “Everyone in the industry has been aware that green changes are on the horizon, but often these deadlines come up much faster than we first anticipate. For that reason, we have been doubling down on our efforts to ensure that Bolt, our new equipment for sale and our rehire fleet becomes more sustainable and that we can offer solutions to the umkhakha wezokwakha ekuqedeni okulimazayo ukuphuma kwekhabhoni.

“Using HVO is significant a part of this process and becomes even more important with the tax rises to red diesel and the growing consensus on the need for action to address climate change. We are also continuing to invest heavily in other renewables, such as solar and battery hybrid engine and diesel free machines, as part of our comprehensive approach to a sustainable future.”

Yasungulwa ngo-2010, i-MHM Group ingumhlinzeki oholayo wezinhlobonhlobo zemishini esimeme, kuhlanganise namajeneretha e-solar hybrid nemibhoshongo yokukhanyisa ilanga. Umphakeli unikeza uhla lwemikhiqizo emisha ekhipha i-zero carbon futhi inganikwa amandla imithombo yamafutha evuselelekayo.

Okuthunyelwe I-Red Diesel countdown: ukuqashwa kwemboni kanye nomkhakha wokwakha uyanxuswa ukuthi kuthathwe ezinye izindlela ezihlanzekile zikaphethiloli ivele kuqala Izindaba Zomkhakha Wezokwakha.
