UK chain Waitrose has announced it will incorporate ten new eco-friendly delivery trucks into its fleet, running completely on biomethane gas generated from food waste. While previous ‘green’ vehicles have used a combination of diesel with methane, natural gas or biomethane gas, with a range of nearly 300 miles, renewable biomethane costs 40 percent less than diesel and emits 70 percent less carbon dioxide, in line with the EU’s pledge to cut its greenhouse-gas emissions by 40 percent by 2030 under the Paris Climate Agreement.
