CROPENERGIES SEES RISING ETHANOL DEMAND, BOOSTED OUTPUT IN 2019/20 GERMANY

摘要

Ethanol producer CropEnergies said that demand for bioethanol is expected to recover as the relaxation of coronavirus lockdowns in Europe enable more people to use their cars. It was not yet possible to forecast to what extent increased demand for bioethanol for hand sanitizers would offset the reduced demand for use in vehicle fuels, CEO Joachim Lutz said. But he expected a normalisation of European fuel markets in the second half of 2020, from the summer.
