Reduce loss at source
Designed to reduce evaporative fuel loss within compatible storage applications.
SPPE · System for Preventing Petrol Evaporation
A prevention-first technology for petrol storage.
SPPE is designed for installation within compatible fuel-storage tanks to reduce evaporative fuel loss at source. The public site explains its purpose and applications; detailed engineering is shared through controlled technical review.
Canadian patent application No. 3,269,983 · filed 2025
Design intent
What SPPE is designed to achieve
SPPE addresses evaporation from a prevention-first perspective. Its design intent is to retain more petrol in liquid form while working alongside the controls and operating requirements already applicable to the site.
Passive operation
Designed to operate without an active energy-consuming vapour-recovery cycle.
Application-specific integration
Installation and compatibility are assessed against tank geometry, access, operating conditions and site requirements.
Complement existing controls
SPPE is not presented as a replacement for mandatory Stage I, Stage II or other regulatory controls.
Detailed design information is shared through controlled technical review or under an appropriate confidentiality agreement.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What does SPPE stand for?
SPPE stands for System for Preventing Petrol Evaporation. It is Greenie Positive’s fuel-storage technology designed to reduce evaporative loss at source.
Is SPPE a replacement for Stage I or Stage II vapour recovery?
No. SPPE is intended as a complementary prevention-first technology. Applicable legal, safety and vapour-recovery requirements remain in place.
Does SPPE require external operating power?
SPPE is designed for passive operation without an active energy-consuming recovery cycle. Application-specific requirements are confirmed during technical review.
What performance can be expected?
Performance depends on the tank, fuel, climate, throughput and operating conditions. A customer-reported field result indicated approximately 83% reduction at one installation, but this is not a guarantee for other applications.
