The Red Diesel Replacement (RDR) programme funded by the UK government provides innovation funding for the development and demonstration of low carbon fuel and system alternatives to red diesel for the construction, and mining and quarrying sectors to support the decarbonisation of these sectors, which have the entitlement to use red diesel and rebated fuels revoked as of April 2022.The RDR is part of the GBP 1 billion Net Zero Innovation portfolio and provides grants in 2 phases. Phase 1 rolled out in 2021 provided funding for the development of component technologies for distribution, storage and energy delivery systems, equipment, and fuel development. Phase 2 launched in 2023 supports the physical demonstration of solutions replacing existing red diesel-using technologies on construction and mining or quarrying sites.
