MB Energy to supply renewable diesel to Lechner Racing's transport fleet
MB Energy, an independent and integrated energy company, and Lechner Racing, the most successful team in Porsche Supercup history, are proud to announce the extension of their long-term partnership for another three years, covering the Porsche Supercup seasons from 2026 to 2028.
Under the renewed agreement, MB Energy will continue to provide Renewable Diesel (HVO 100) to power Lechner Racing's transport fleet. This is complemented by the use of Voluntary Emissions Reduction certificates (VERs) to offset any remaining emissions. The partnership, launched in 2023, began with the introduction of Renewable Diesel (HVO 100) in a single truck and has since evolved to encompass broader targets, energy management, and CO₂-reduction strategies, including offsetting measures and efficiency improvements. Through the use of Renewable Diesel (HVO100) a CO2 emissions reduction of ~70t CO2e compared to a baseline of 100% fossil fuel usage was achieved in 2025, which is more than double the emission reduction of ~30 tonnes CO2e in 2024. This progression shows how the partnership has evolved from a logistics-focused initiative into a more holistic carbon reduction approach covering both on-road operations and racing-related activities. Over the coming three years, further expansion of the emissions accounting scope beyond AdBlue consumption and associated transportation emissions, will be introduced.
“The extension of our partnership with Lechner Racing is a testament to our dedication to delivering energy solutions while actively reducing the environmental footprint. Together, we are committed to driving meaningful change in the logistics sector, balancing operational efficiency with future-oriented alternatives”, says André Cardoso, Senior Vice President Sales & Marketing at MB Energy.
Robert Lechner, CEO of Lechner Racing adds, “We are thrilled to continue our valuable partnership with MB Energy, building on three exciting and impactful years together. From supporting MB Energy’s rebranding to advancing future-oriented energy solutions within our operations, this collaboration has continuously evolved. Looking ahead, we are excited to further drive carbon reduction initiatives while maintaining our competitive edge and striving for championship success.”
The partnership is an excellent example of how two companies can come together to achieve a common goal. Not only does the partnership benefit Lechner Racing by supporting their sustainability efforts, it also enables MB Energy to refine its approach and develop offerings that can be extended to other customers. MB Energy and Lechner Racing are not only advancing their own emission reduction goals but also inspiring the broader motorsport community to embrace more environmentally conscious practices.
To highlight the benefits and achievements of the partnership, and to demonstrate its ability to support customers and partners in achieving ambitious carbon reduction goals, MB Energy has published a case study on the Lechner Racing partnership, which can be access on the company’s website.
