E10 now available for some drivers in Germany, supply increasing

Source : ethanolproducer.com

Starting Jan. 1, gas stations in Germany started offering E10, an increase from E5 which has been available since 2007. Although some reports are that the roll out of E10 has been delayed by a month, Dietrich Klein, secretary general of the German Bioethanol industry association, told EPM that's not exactly true. "It's coming in, but it was never foreseen that it would be everywhere at the first of January", he told EPM. Drivers won't be able to find E10 at all gas stations until each has added the proper labeling and solved certain technical issues. Klein estimated that E10 would be available all over Germany by the end of February or early March. At that point the process will have to be completed or the quota of a minimum energy content of 6.25% biofuels in diesel and gasoline won't be met, he said. Although biodiesel will be used to help fulfill that quota, ethanol is crucial to meeting the quota because biodiesel's portion is limited to 7% of total biofuels volume, Klein said.
