About Bio-ethanol: Drivers <strong>for</strong> growth<br />
•USA:<br />
Focus on ethanol due to MTBE ban<br />
•<strong>Europe</strong>an Union:<br />
Biofuel directive: member states will try to achieve 2% share of fuel<br />
consumption through renewable sources (bio-ethanol and biodiesel) by the<br />
end of 2005 and 5.75% share in 2010.<br />
Each member state can implement own tax incentives<br />
Focus on biofuels due to targets <strong>for</strong> reduction of emission (Kyoto),<br />
reduction of mineral oil dependency and agricultural interests<br />
•Other countries:<br />
Brazil, China, Thailand have programs <strong>for</strong> biofuels to reduce oil<br />
dependency, improve trade balance and reduce greenhouse gases<br />

About Bio-ethanol: e-blends vs ETBE<br />
2 roads to cleaner/renewable fuels using ethanol:<br />
• ETBE<br />
Similar as MTBE, but of renewable source: ethanol<br />
• E-blends<br />
Direct blending of ethanol into car fuel<br />
