India’s Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari said that flex fuel engines could soon become mandatory for carmakers in India.
What is Flex Fuel Engines?
Flex fuel engines are capable of running on 100% petrol or 100% ethanol and are already available in countries like Brazil, the US, and Canada.
Ethanol also known as biofuel is a pure form of alcohol made from sugarcane.
Nitin Gadkari Said :
“I am transport minister, I am going to issue an order to the industry that only petrol engines will not be there, there will be flex fuel engines, where there will be choice for the people that they can use 100% ethanol or 100% crude oil. I am going to take a decision within 8-10 days and we will make it mandatory for the automobile industry to make flex engines.”
Petrol engines should be able to deal with 10% ethanol by April 2022 and 20% by 2025.
And 20% deadline had previously been set for 2030.
