Maxol lauches biofuel mix for standard vehicles

By Ray Ryan, Agribusiness Correspondent
MAXOL announced yesterday that drivers of standard petrol-powered vehicles will shortly be able to use — for the first time throughout Ireland — bio-fuel without risk to the car manufacturer’s warranty.


The €810 million turnover group said it is replacing its regular unleaded petrol with new E5 fuel — a blend of 95% petrol and 5% locally produced bio-ethanol which will be made available at all of its 150 service stations countrywide from September.

Maxol said the new fuel improves car performance and will retail at the same price as standard unleaded petrol. It had been successfully piloted at 24 service stations in the north-east for the past year.

E5 is sold as 99RON in the UK by tesco.
