On many jobsites. Idle time can make up a significant percentage of running time. Here's a look at the effect it can have on fuel costs

Fuel-saving technology is built into much of today's Cat equipment. Features like Economy Mode help improve fuel efficiency without sacrificing productivity.

Fuel Choices Reduce Lifecycle Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Many Cat machines already operate on lower-carbon intensity fuels, including biodiesel and renewable diesel (HVO).*

 

*Refer to guidelines for successful application. Please consult your Cat dealer or “Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations” (SEBU6250) for details. These fuels do not reduce CO2 emissions at the tailpipe.

Renewable Diesel (HVO)

 

You can use 100% hydrotreated vegetable oll (HVO) as a drop-in replacement for diesel in Cat engines. No engine conversion is needed. And there's no impact on the standard warranty, maintenance intervals, fluids or filters.

of

 

Biodiesel

 

Biodiesel fuel can be made from vegetable oils, animal fat, and waste cooking oll, and when per recommended specifications is renewable, nontoxic, and biodegradable. Blodiesel is commonly blended with conventional diesel fuel. A majority of Caterpillar machines can use up to B20* (20% Biodiesel, 80% Diesel), and some applications can use up to B100*. Like HVO, using it won't affect your warranty or maintenance practices.

 

*Check with dealer for details referencing publications SEBU6250, SEBU6251 & EN15940
