The B+ Summit will return on 1-2 October 2025, this time taking place in Vienna, Austria.
This higher biofuel blends conference – promoted by EBB and EWABA – will focus on the topic of large scale decarbonization of Heavy-Duty Vehicles through higher biodiesel (HVO & FAME) blends.
Building on the success of the inaugural edition, it is expected to gather 150+ participants from the biofuels industry and supply chain, transport & logistics companies, policymakers, NGOs, vehicle manufacturers, associations and journalists, all interested in the decarbonization of the road freight and passenger HDV sector.
