As per the Gadkari, very soon numerous vehicles in India would run on 100 % ethanol. Previous year, in the month of December, the govt has issued an advisory to carmakers to introduce flexible-fuel engines in Vehicles.
Gadkari added that, govt is working to encourage the use of green hydrogen and other alternative fuels. Presently, we are using maximum petrol and diesel and international scenario is not good.
We are facing crucial problems as there is war going between Russia and Ukraine, this one is really big challenge. Hence, the only option Gadkari noted is, alternative fuels such as bio-ethanol and LNG, these are import substitutes, these are cost effective and also are pollution free.
