Partnership Puts Sustainability at the Heart of the UK’s Premier Construction Showcase

New Era Energy, a leading sustainable fuel provider, has been announced as the Official Fuel Partner for Plantworx 2025, positioning environmental responsibility at the centre of the UK’s largest construction industry exhibition.

The groundbreaking partnership will see HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) fuel made available throughout the event, supplied exclusively by New Era Energy and delivered using the company’s own HVO-powered fleet. This comprehensive approach ensures that every drop of fuel contributes to reducing carbon emissions, cutting NOx pollution, and delivering cleaner air for exhibitors and visitors alike.

“We’re proud to partner with Plantworx 2025 to show construction can lead on sustainability,” said James Hunt,CEO at New Era Energy. “Our fleet runs on HVO and we’re supplying HVO for the event — it’s sustainability in action.

He continued: “In 2024, New Era delivered more than 1 million litres of HVO every week — helping fleets nationwide cut scope 1 CO2e emissions by over 132,000 tonnes.”

HVO fuel offers up to 90% reduction in carbon emissions compared to traditional diesel, while also significantly reducing nitrogen oxide emissions and particulate matter. The fuel is fully compatible with existing diesel equipment, making it an ideal drop-in solution for the plant machinery and vehicles that will be showcased at Plantworx 2025.

 

The partnership extends beyond simply providing cleaner fuel. New Era Energy’s commitment to using HVO in their own delivery vehicles means the entire supply chain maintains the highest environmental standards, creating a truly sustainable fuel ecosystem for the event.

“This partnership represents exactly the kind of forward-thinking approach we want to showcase at PlantWorx 2025,” said Simon Frere-Cook, PlantWorx operations director. “Having New Era Energy as our Official Fuel Partner allows us to demonstrate practical sustainability solutions that the construction industry can implement immediately.”

Plantworx 2025 continues to be the UK’s premier platform for construction equipment, machinery, and services, attracting thousands of industry professionals. With sustainability increasingly becoming a priority across the sector, the partnership with New Era Energy reinforces the event’s commitment to showcasing innovative, environmentally responsible solutions.

The collaboration will provide attendees with firsthand experience of HVO fuel’s performance and environmental benefits, supporting the construction industry’s transition towards more sustainable operations.
