EN14214 requirements are shown for comparison. This is the Euro Standard for road fuel, but is widely used as the
reference for power generation, as there is currently no Standard for this application. Certain requirements for road fuel
(oxidation, CFPP) are not relevant to power generation.
Every batch of fuel is independently verified by a UKAS-accredited test laboratory to exceed the key requirements of
EN14214 as applicable to power generation.
