Certa returns as sponsor and fuel partner of the National Ploughing Championships (The Ploughing), supplying hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) to power the event, including fuelling the site’s generators and lighting towers. Managing director of the National Ploughing Association (NPA), Anna May McHugh, commented: “We’re delighted to continue our partnership with Certa. Their commitment to supplying HVO renewable fuel supports our efforts to reduce the environmental impact of the event, while providing the reliable energy needed to power the National Ploughing Championships.” This is the fifth consecutive year that Certa is official fuel sponsor and Certa managing director, Orla Stevens said: “We are proud to support this landmark event once again and to play our part in helping it become more sustainable. Through the use of HVO, a renewable alternative to diesel that can reduce carbon emissions by up to 90 per cent, we are helping to lower the event’s environmental impact while supporting a cleaner energy future.” Throughout the event, Certa will showcase its range of energy and fuel solutions, including HVO, agricultural fuels, home heating oil, lubricants, retail fuel services and solar solutions. Certa will also be highlighting its newly signed charity partnership with the RNLI.
