I am surprised that the users of SVO have not posted the latest news
on the more-or-less effective deletion of registration for tax or paying it !
From 1 July if you produce less than 2500 litres of fuel per annum
from veg oil - or use SVO in a mix - then there is no further need
to register with Customs. But you must keep a record of your
purchases of SVO for use as fuel. If you go over 2500l then you have
to register.
Here is the relevant new law -

This is the letter that registered 'producers' have received just recently -

So how soon before the price of SVO increases?
Its still not something I indulge in - or should I, now its legally
tax free at my level of consumption?
Oh yes, and I see that another new wheeze for those who think that
SVO is a bit thick. To help mixing with derv , the 'experts'
recommend the addition of 1 litre of white spirit to 20litres of oil
and let it stand for 2-3 days. It has magic effects with no
mechanical mixing apparently. Some have used petrol but the white
spirit has lubricating properties that the petrol does not possess -
apart from the fact that it needs physically mixing - and of course
white spirit does not evaporate either.
