DB Regio trains running through Baden-Württemberg using biofuel 57 DB Regio trains are now running through Baden-Württemberg using biofuel, resulting in around 90 per cent less CO2 emissions than diesel.

Deutsche Bahn (DB) have announced that 57 vehicles are now operating with climate-friendly biofuel in the state of Baden-Württemberg. This will save around 90 per cent of CO2 emissions on the Aulendorfer Kreuz and Donau-Ostalb routes. Furthermore, DB has completely converted the filling station in Aulendorf from diesel to biofuel, and it is hoped that by the end of 2023, 1.3 million litres of biofuel will flow through the filling station.

“For us, the use of biofuel is an immediate climate protection measure,” Evelyn Palla, Head of Regional Transport DB AG, said. “Together with the state of Baden-Württemberg, we are taking an important step towards phasing out diesel and climate neutrality. By December 2023, we will save around 3,700 tonnes of CO2 in the two networks. Before the end of 2022, we want to use the biofuel in regional transport at other locations throughout Germany. In this way, we are making the already climate-friendly public transport system even greener and more attractive for our passengers.”
