Repsol launches Nexa, the commercial brand of its 100% renewable diesel

Repsol announced Oct. 29 that it has launched the commercial name of its 100 percent renewable diesel in its service stations: Nexa, a premium fuel designed for all diesel engines.

Nexa 100 percent renewable diesel has a unique formulation that optimizes performance and extends the life of diesel engines, according to Repsol.

It is produced from organic waste and, with today’s technology, already reduces net CO2 emissions by up to 90 percent compared to the mineral fuel it replaces, thanks to the lower carbon intensity of the renewable fuel due to its organic origin.

Repsol currently supplies Nexa 100 percent renewable diesel to more than 580 service stations in the main cities and transport corridors of the Iberian Peninsula.

With 537 stations in Spain and 50 in Portugal, the energy company continues to expand its network of stations with renewable fuels with the goal of ending the year with more than 600 and reaching 1,500 in 2025.

“This new commercial name that we have just announced reinforces the company’s commitment to renewable fuels and helps our customers to easily recognize our premium diesel produced from organic waste,” said Valero Marín, an executive managing director with the company.

“At Repsol, we are prepared to offer any type of energy at our service stations and Nexa 100 percent renewable diesel is one more alternative that allows immediate decarbonization in the transport sector and can already be used in all diesel vehicles on our roads,” Marín added.

Repsol said it was the first Spanish energy group to offer its customers a 100 percent renewable diesel at its service stations, in addition to the wide range of mobility products available at its nearly 4,000 stations on the Iberian Peninsula.

In addition, customers who use Waylet, Repsol’s payment and loyalty app, and choose to fill up with Nexa 100 percent renewable diesel will be able to enjoy a discount of 10-euro cents per liter of fuel from Oct. 29 until Jan. 11.

Last April, Repsol announced the start of large-scale production of renewable fuels at its industrial complex in Cartagena, Spain.

This 250-million-euro (USD$271.4 million) plant is the first in the Iberian Peninsula dedicated exclusively to the production of 100 percent renewable fuels, according to Repsol.

It has a production capacity of 250,000 tons per year and can produce renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).
