BASF is launching a new product called AdBlue® GE (Green Electricity), which is made using only electricity from renewable sources. This process helps reduce CO2 emissions compared to the regular AdBlue production, improving the CO₂ footprint.
The production uses 100% green electricity from the Hollandse Kust Zuid offshore wind farm, following a mass balance approach.
AdBlue GE has the same quality and performance as the regular AdBlue. It offers high purity, steady engine performance, and helps reduce nitrogen oxides (NOx) and soot formation.
BASF is first launching AdBlue GE in Switzerland, working with their long-time partner Thommen Furler. Thierry Zuber, COO of Thommen Furler Group, said, “BASF shows it’s possible to make AdBlue more sustainably. Also, by delivering by rail, CO₂ emissions are lowered along the whole supply chain. We’re proud to be a partner for AdBlue GE by BASF.” BASF plans to expand this product to other European countries soon.
As per Coherent Market Insights, the Green Technology And Sustainability Market will grow at a 12% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2025 to 2032, from USD 20.06 Bn in 2025 to around USD 44.35 Bn by 2032. The global green technology and sustainability market is booming, largely due to the rising need for effective pollution monitoring and control. In addition, increasing initiatives by governments and private companies to promote environmental conservation are significantly driving green technology and sustainability market demand, making it a critical area of growth and investment in both developed and developing regions.
“With AdBlue GE by BASF, we offer our customers a new product that can directly be used as drop-in solution without any further adjustments. The use of green electricity is the next important step in the expansion of our product portfolio,” said Frederik Keilen, Business Manager AdBlue by BASF.
