Australian state of NSW to extend 6% ethanol mandate

摘要

Sydney—The eastern Australian state of New South Wales plans to extend and begin enforcing its mandate requiring that ethanol make up 6% of gasoline sales, as part of a package of reforms unveiled Sunday by Minister for Innovation and Better Regulation Victor Dominello. The amendments to the Biofuels Act 2007 are designed to “put downward pressure on E10 prices, increase compliance among fuel companies and boost transparency in the market,” the government said in a statement.
