Green Ethanol

Ethanol fuel has 3 different environmental terminology classifications. The classification is dependent upon the feedstock used and the origin of the energy used in the production process.

Feedstocks (F)

- Type F1: Plant based. e.g. grains, sugar cane.

- Type F2: Fossilised carbon sources. e.g. coal.

Energy Source (E)

- Type E1: Renewable energy. e.g. Solar, wind, hydro.

- Type E2: Fossil based fuel sources. e.g. Natural gas, coal based grid electricity.

Green Ethanol - Ethanol fuel derived from using F1 feedstock and E1 energy source

Grey Ethanol - Ethanol fuel derived from using either/or a F2 feedstock or a E2 energy source

Black Ethanol - Ethanol fuel derived using a F2 feedstock and a E2 energy source.
