It\u2019s a biofuel made from hydrogenated vegetable oil that can reduce emissions up to 90 percent, the builder says (and whose raw materials do not compete with the food chain).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Azimut-Benetti is starting by using the biofuel for technical testing on its yachts and by allowing owners to take delivery of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/yachts\/flibs-2023-new-yachts-to-see\/\">new yachts<\/a> with biofuel in the tanks. The first yacht used to promote the partnership with Eni Sustainable Mobility was an Azimut Magellano 60 this past June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Going forward, Azimut-Benetti plans to create refueling sites for owners of its yachts. The first of those sites is expected to be in Italy, where Azimut-Benetti is based.<\/p>\n\n\n\n        <section class=\"hydra-container\">\n\n\t\t\t                <div class=\"hydra-canvas\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/YTG0923_Currents_2-1024x682.jpg\" class=\"hydra-image\" alt=\"biofuel drum\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/YTG0923_Currents_2-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/YTG0923_Currents_2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/YTG0923_Currents_2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/YTG0923_Currents_2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/YTG0923_Currents_2-50x33.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.yachtingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/YTG0923_Currents_2.jpg 2000w\" \/>                <\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n            <figcaption class=\"caption margin_top_xs full border_1 hydra-figcaption\">\n                <span class=\"hydra-image-caption\">The HVOlution biofuel that Azimut-Benetti is now using is just one of the company\u2019s alternative-fuel offerings.<\/span>\n                <span class=\"article_image_credit italic margin_right_xs\">[scanrail]\/stock.adobe.com<\/span>\n\n\t\t\t\t            <\/figcaption>\n        <\/section>\n\t\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eni Sustainable Mobility: A New Chapter in Fuel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Italy-based Eni has been around since 1953.
