All data August 2014 from the Department of Energy, e85prices.com, [2] and E85refueling.com. [3] [4] [5] Links go to each state's list of stations; see notes below for caveats. For each state the total number of facilities is given. As of August 1, 2014, there are now 3,354 stations in the U.S. selling E85.
BioEthanol for Sustainable Transport (BEST) was a four-year project financially supported by the European Union for promoting the introduction and market penetration of bioethanol as a vehicle fuel, and the introduction and wider use of flexible-fuel vehicles and ethanol-powered vehicles on the world market.
In Brazil, ethanol fuel is neat at the pumps, hence flexible-fuel vehicles (FFV) including trucks, tractors, motorbikes and mopeds run on E100. The 85% fraction is commonly sold at pumps worldwide (outside the US), and when specifically supplied or sold as E85 is always 85% ethanol (at pumps or in barrel).
8.3 to 10.2: 1.3 to 1.6: Ratio of the energy obtained from ethanol/energy expended in its production: Estimated greenhouse gas emission reduction [18] [22] [25] 86–90% (1) 10–30% (1) % GHGs avoided by using ethanol instead of gasoline, using existing crop land, without ILUC effects. EPA's estimated 2022 GHG reduction for RFS2. [107] 61% (2) 21%
All states require gas pumps to be labeled with the correct octane level and nearly all states do regular testing to make sure gas stations are in compliance. A minimum 82 octane fuel is recommended for most vehicles produced since 1984. Older cars with carburetors could operate with lower octane fuel at higher elevations. Regardless of ...
Straight hydrous ethanol as an automotive fuel has been widely used in Brazil since the late 1970s for neat ethanol vehicles [96] [143] and more recently for flexible-fuel vehicles. [ 144 ] [ 145 ] The ethanol fuel used in Brazil is distilled close to the azeotrope mixture of 95.63% ethanol and 4.37% water (by weight) which is approximately 3.5 ...
Leaders of the Energy Commission say the new building standards will help the state reach building decarbonization goals.
The Ford Model T's engine was capable of running on ethanol, gasoline, kerosene, or a mixture of the first two.. A flexible-fuel vehicle (FFV) or dual-fuel vehicle (colloquially called a flex-fuel vehicle) is an alternative fuel vehicle with an internal combustion engine designed to run on more than one fuel, usually gasoline blended with either ethanol or methanol fuel, and both fuels are ...
