USGC and Partners Do Ethanol Testing in Taiwan
The U.S. Grains Council (USGC) recently collaborated with partners in Taiwan, including Chinese Petroleum Corp, the American Institute in Taiwan, and Yamaha, to test motorcycles fueled by 100% bioethanol (E100) and E10 gasoline. This initiative, which aims to promote ethanol as a sustainable energy source, is the first major project following a memorandum of understanding signed earlier this year. It showcased the stability and compatibility of ethanol fuel in vehicles, drawing attention from both public and private sector stakeholders in Taiwan.
The U.S. Grains Council (USGC) recently collaborated with partners in Taiwan on a test drive of motorcycles fueled by 100 percent bioethanol (E100) and E10 gasoline to prove its viability as a sustainable energy source in the transportation sector.
The collaboration with Chinese Petroleum Corp Taiwan (CPC), the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT) and Yamaha, marks the first major initiative following the signing of an MOU earlier this year to raise awareness and acceptance of ethanol gasoline among Taiwan society.
Officers from the Ministry of Transportation and Communications, Ministry of the Environment, Taoyuan city government and representatives from vehicle industry, academia and research, professional motorcycle riders and media reporters also attended the event to witness vehicles’ stability and compatibility by using E100 and E10 gasoline.
“The excitement from both public and private sector stakeholders was clear to see and their eagerness to invest time and resources into ethanol shows the Council and U.S. producers are certainly on the right track to increasing global biofuel use,” said Michael Lu, USGC director in Taiwan.
