Automotive use of bioethanol

Clipped to the Drawing Board by John Chadwick

In February of this year the European Commission proposed to force automotive manufacturers to cut carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from cars by 18percent, with new cars expected to meet this target by 2012. In addition, stricter standards have been proposed so that between 2011 and 2020 fuel suppliers in the EU will have to achieve a 10percent reduction in the greenhouse gas emissions their fuels produce when they are refined, transported and used. Improvements in fuel quality will cut emissions even further.
