Seeds of hope : Use of Vegetative Oils as Engine Fuel
by K V Prayukth*
Dependence on foreign sources of energy has always been a bane for the Indian economy. It is the single biggest drain on the foreign exchange reserves of the country and the uncertainty in the prices of international crude has always kept Indian government and planers on tender hooks. An increase of $1 per barrel of crude oil prices adds $425 million to our oil import bill. As India imports 70% of the oil it uses, the country has been hit hard by the increased cost and uncertainty and so is exploring other energy avenues.
