Red Diesel

Red diesel is used in many industries. Many people seem to think it’s just for farmers in tractors, but it’s used in construction, mining and many other industries in machinery and equipment. Data centres, transport companies and the public sector also use red diesel in backup generators. In fact, all diesel-powered vehicles can run on red diesel, but it’s considered a tax evasion if you use it on the road.
