‘India’s market for fuels and mobility is rapidly growing’
The blending of ethanol, extracted from sugarcane as well as broken rice and other foodgrains, in petrol is being introduced in the country by the government to reduce the country’s oil import cost and lower carbon emissions while giving farmers an additional source of income. “India’s market for fuels and mobility is rapidly growing. It is expected to be the fastest-growing fuel market in the world over the next 20 years,” said the statement.
