Neste Veturi R&D program

Neste is targeting to become a global leader in renewable and circular solutions. Our innovation activities focus on renewing the existing businesses and developing new raw materials and technology solutions for transportation fuels as well as chemicals and polymers..

In the Neste Veturi R&D program we develop sustainable fuels and chemicals from renewable and circular raw materials that have been difficult to utilize so far. New solutions decrease the use of crude oil and tackle climate change. Focus areas of Neste Veturi include:

•  ​forestry residues 

• ​ municipal solid waste 

• ​ microalgae 

• ​ liquefied waste plastics 

• ​ carbon dioxide and hydrogen 

• ​ novel vegetable oils

• ​ catalysis

The development work is supported by Business Finland. Veturi instrument of Business Finland aims to increase research, development and innovation (RDI) in Finland very significantly by supporting leading companies to develop new business and build RDI ecosystems. More information on the Veturi instrument can be found here.

Call for collaboration

Development of new solutions enables collaboration and Neste works closely with companies, research institutes and universities. We are looking for curious-minded research partners to co-develop fuels and chemicals from scalable renewable and circular raw materials with us. The collaboration can be realized in the form of e.g. bilateral collaboration or consortium research.

We are happy to share with you the overview of the Neste Veturi R&D program including also the topics where R&D collaboration is looked for.
