Key Takeaways

  • Suzuki Marine USA joins forces with the NMMA to promote sustainable boating fuels.

  • Hyperfuels PurFuels™, a "drop-in" biofuel, reduces CO2 emissions by 30% more than E10 gasoline.

  • Trials at the Suzuki Marine Technical Center are leading the charge for wider adoption in marinas across Florida.

Suzuki Marine USA, a Suzuki Motor Corporation's subsidiary, is making an impact in the world of sustainable boating by collaborating with the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA).

This initiative aims to accelerate the adoption of eco-friendly fuels for recreational boats, ultimately leading to a cleaner boating experience.

At the forefront of this effort is the Suzuki Marine Technical Center in Panama City, Florida. Here, trials are underway using Hyperfuels PurFuels™, a revolutionary biofuel solution. This "drop-in" fuel, made from recycled cooking oil and plant-based materials, is a pioneer.

It works in existing gasoline outboard engines without modification, offering a considerable environmental benefit. Compared to E10 gasoline with similar renewable content, Hyperfuels PurFuels™ has a remarkable 30% reduction in CO2 emissions.

By collaborating with the NMMA and local stakeholders, they are actively promoting the use of sustainable fuels in marinas across Florida's Panhandle. The project kicks off at a city-owned marina in Panama City, with plans to expand statewide in the near future.

This project is a big step in the direction of making recreational boating more sustainable in the future. Suzuki Marine USA is lessening its environmental effects and improving the boating experience for its clients in the US by adopting innovative solutions like Hyperfuels PurFuels™. Anyone who enjoys being on the water will benefit from it.
