Thailand agrees to trial B20 in trucks and B10 for military and government use

June 23, 2016 |

In Thailand, the energy ministry has agreed to subsidize the use of B20 in trucks under a trial program that will pay companies 11 cents per liter of biodiesel consumed for up to 50,000 liters. Biodiesel is currently 7 cents per liter more expensive than fossil diesel. The government will also study the use of B10 in military and government fleets. Currently the country produces 4.2 million liters of biodiesel per day but with B10 and B20 implemented, consumption would jump to more than 10 million liters per day.
