BIEPA Urges Review of Ethanol Allocation Framework Amidst Capacity Expansion
•Bharat Independent Ethanol Producers Association (BIEPA) highlights the need for a balanced approach to ethanol allocation.
•Non-LTOA units, representing over 115 ethanol manufacturing units, account for nearly 750 crore litres of installed capacity and ₹20,000 crore in investments.
•These units, established under government schemes, are mandated as dedicated ethanol plants but lack assured long-term offtake arrangements.
•BIEPA President Pushpinder Singh emphasizes balanced and predictable allocation mechanisms to sustain investor confidence.
•BIEPA urges the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas to develop an equitable and transparent allocation methodology and a long-term demand roadmap beyond the 20% blending target.
