Sao Paulo — Brazil may not be able to raise to 16% from 15% the mandatory biodiesel mix into diesel within a government-set deadline of March 2026, an official from the Brazilian Ministry of Mines and Energy said on Monday.
Marlon Arraes, director of biofuels at the ministry, said during an industry event in Sao Paulo that there may not be enough time for the government to finalize the needed studies to implement the measure.
