E20 fuel is now available in 15 Indian cities, including Bengaluru. The fuel known as E20 is a mixture of 20% ethanol and 80% regular gasoline.

E20 fuel will be made available in outlets run by the Indian Oil Corporation in the first phase.

Bengaluru will be one of the 15 cities in India to make this available to the general public. The company plans to expand its retail locations across the country over the course of the next two years.

A Green Mobility Rally was also flagged off by the Prime Minister. The goal of the initiative is to increase the general awareness of environmentally friendly fuels and showcase vehicles that are powered by green energy.

Key facts!

• The Prime Minister believes that an increase in the use of biofuels would lead to a reduction in emissions.
• In addition, a blending rate of 10% would save the country more than fifty thousand crores in foreign exchange costs.
• According to experts, ethanol is primarily produced from sugarcane, corn, grain, and other such things.

• Additionally, the oil company is required to recycle 10 crore plastic bottles on an annual basis.
• They do so in order to produce a fabric that is used in the production of uniforms for approximately 35,000 of its employees.
