October 27, 2000India to Test Ethanol Blends Soon India's minister for petroleum and natural gas Ram Naik recently announced that the country will soon launch pilot projects to test the feasibility of blending ethanol with gasoline. Naik said the projects will be launched in three districts of the Maharashtra by the end of the year.
The government has already issued tenders for the supply of ethanol to the three projects, which will be located in the districts of Sangli, Satara and Kolhapur. In addition, Naik noted that the government is considering tax concessions for ethanol.
Currently, the Indian government only allows the use of five percent ethanol in gasoline. Naik said the pilot projects will be based on this proportion because any increase in the amount of ethanol would require an amendment in specifications, which can be a lengthy process.
