    • Suitable for colder climates due to its lower freezing point.

  • Uses:
    • Primarily used in colder regions where conventional diesel (D2) might gel or thicken.
    • Often found in off-road applications, generators, and heating systems.
    • Can be blended with D2 diesel to improve cold-weather performance.

  • Comparison with D2 Diesel:
    • D1 Diesel: Lighter, better for cold weather, lower energy content.
    • D2 Diesel: Heavier, higher energy content, more common for vehicle use.

  • Supply & Availability:
    • Less common than D2 but available in regions with extreme winters.
    • Can be sourced from refineries and fuel suppliers specializing in cold-weather diesel blends.
