Jio-bp, the fuel and mobility joint venture of Reliance Industries Ltd and UK’s bp, has launched petrol blended with 20 per cent ethanol, aligning with the government programme to cut oil imports and reduce carbon emissions.
“In line with the roadmap set by the Government, Jio-bp has become one of the first fuel retailers in India to make E20 blended petrol available,” the company said in a statement.
“Customers with E20 petrol-compatible vehicles will be able to opt for this fuel at select Jio-bp outlets, and the offering will soon be expanded across the network.” The E20 fuel is a 20 per cent blend of ethanol and 80 per cent of petrol.
