Neste and DB Schenker, a leading global logistics service provider, have announced a collaboration aimed at expanding DB Schenker’s use of Neste MY Renewable Diesel in Asia-Pacific. This partnership underscores the shared commitment of both companies to advancing lower-emission logistics.
A trial, conducted from December 2024 to February 2025, marked the first time Neste MY Renewable Diesel was utilized in Singapore to power DB Schenker’s land transport operations. As Neste MY Renewable Diesel is a direct replacement for fossil diesel and compatible with all diesel engines, the switch required no additional investment or modifications to vehicle engines or fuel distribution infrastructure.
The land transport sector accounts for approximately 15% of carbon emissions in Singapore. The use of Neste MY Renewable Diesel can reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by up to 90% over the product’s life cycle compared to fossil diesel, effectively demonstrating the feasibility of this lower-emission solution for DB Schenker’s land transport decarbonization efforts.
Ee Pin Lee, Head of Commercial APAC, Renewable Products at Neste, stated: “This collaboration with DB Schenker marks the first time Neste MY Renewable Diesel has been used for road transport in Singapore, and it demonstrates the crucial role that this renewable solution can play in DB Schener’s sustainability journey. We are committed to expanding our collaboration in Singapore and beyond with DB Schenker and contribute towards a lower-emission logistics sector.”
Christoph Matthes, Senior Vice President, Head of Land Transport in APAC at DB Schenker, added: “DB Schenker is committed to conducting its business with the smallest possible ecological footprint. In support of this commitment, we have agreed to expand the adoption of Neste MY Renewable Diesel. We hope to transform our whole industry together with our partners and customers with the use of renewable diesel as a viable solution for decarbonizing our land transport operations in the region.”
Neste and DB Schenker have a successful history of collaboration, including the use of Neste MY Renewable Diesel in DB Schenker’s light distribution vehicles in Helsinki and Turku, Finland, and a pilot of high-power charging services for heavy-duty vehicles in Finland. This expanded partnership in Singapore and Asia-Pacific reinforces their joint commitment to driving sustainable change in the logistics sector.
