Participating in a Fireside Chat Session at the Pioneer Biofuels 360° Summit, Minister of Petroleum and Natural Gas, Hardeep Singh Puri stated that ethanol blending is all about empowering Annadatas by turning them into Urjadatas
Dispelling misinformation and false narratives surrounding ethanol-blended fuel, Minister of Petroleum and Natural Gas Hardeep Singh Puri, on the occasion of “World Biofuel Day”, emphasised that there has not been a single case of engine failure or breakdown reported since E20 became a base fuel over the last 10 months.
Emphasising the far-reaching benefits of ethanol blending, particularly E20 Puri highlighted its transformative impact on the country’s energy landscape. Citing Brazil’s example, he said the country has run on E27 for years without any issues.
Some lobbies with vested interests are actively attempting to create confusion and derail India’s ethanol revolution. However, such efforts will not succeed. The E20 transition is already firmly underway, backed by strong policy support, industry readiness, and public acceptance — and there is no turning back.
