Bioethanol blending 2024!

 Here's some information about the use of bioethanol in India in 2024: 

 

Ethanol blending

As of August 31, 2024, India's ethanol blending percentage was 13%. This is an increase from 1.53% in 2014. The government has set a target of reaching 20% blending by 2025. 

 

Ethanol production

The USDA Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) estimates that India's ethanol production in 2024 will be 6.35 billion liters. 

 

Ethanol consumption

The FAS estimates that India's ethanol consumption in 2024 will be 7.2 billion liters, with 6.2 billion liters used for fuel. 

 

Ethanol feedstock

India is expected to have a feedstock shortage in 2024 due to a decline in sugarcane production and depleting rice grain storage. 

 

Ethanol benefits

Ethanol is a domestically produced biofuel that can help reduce India's dependence on imported fossil fuels. It can also help create local employment opportunities, promote the "Make in India" initiative, and support the Swachh B

harat Mission.
