Nitin Gadkari, the Minister for Road Transport and Highways in India, announced plans to propel the electric, hydrogen, and flex industries to the forefront globally. He highlighted initiatives to reduce GST on higher ethanol fuel blends to encourage the adoption of vehicles running on 100% ethanol. This move aims to decrease India's reliance on fossil fuel imports, combat pollution, and enhance self-reliance. The government also intends to escalate national highway construction to 100 km daily to bolster infrastructure and tackle challenges related to ethanol adoption and development. Furthermore, India is strategizing the conversion of surplus food into fuel, with proposals to elevate ethanol blends in fuel from E20 to 100% ethanol, thereby replacing gasoline. The promotion of flex engines in vehicles is a key focus for this transition. The country is diversifying its energy sources by exploring hydrogen, methanol, biodiesel, and bioenergy to diminish dependence on gasoline and establish an eco-friendly and economical ecosystem for transportation and energy sectors.
