Should one not use all the ethanol in low proportions (5-10%) in normal petrol cars instead of building up a new system for E85?
In Sweden, there is already 5% E85 in all 95-octane petrol, and this is an effective way of quickly getting large amounts of bioethanol onto the market. Together with other incentives, this in turn means that more people are having the courage to invest in ethanol production. The disadvantage is that using low blends do not promote the development of the technology. If the target is to achieve 100% renewable fuel, then there must be parallel development whereby we invest in solutions to achievement of the 100% target.
