The Government of India<\/b> is pushing biofuels such as ethanol blending of petrol and Compressed biogas (CBG) to reduce the economy’s carbon footprint, dependence on imported oil and raise income of farmers.<\/span><\/p>\n

India achieved 10% ethanol blending of petrol in June last year and has a target of 25% blending by 2025.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Under the 2018 SATAT Scheme, 5,000 CBG plants are to be built for an estimated annual production of 15 million tonnes of gas by next year.India currently has a total ethanol production capacity of 947 crore liters.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
