Brazil to allow voluntary B20 and B30 blending with an eye on B100


In Brazil, the National Council on Energy Policy CNPE has issued a ruling that opens the door for voluntary biodiesel blending of up to 20% for captive fleets and in public pumps, going as high as 30% in railroad transport, agricultural and industrial uses, which is significantly higher than the current 7% blending mandate. The ruling also allows experimentation with B100. In order to supply the extra fuel, ANP will hold two additional auctions to purchase biodiesel.
