Now, India pushes diesel, LPG blending plans
The government is taking decisive steps towards rolling out blended diesel and commercial liquefied petroleum gas, finalising a set of standards for such fuels to reduce reliance on imports and boost energy security amid lumbering geopolitical tensions, people aware of the matter said.
The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) is examining inputs from refiners and the transport industry to finalise specifications for diesel blended with 10% iso-butyl alcohol (IBA), a flammable liquid typically produced from fermented grains.
