VTV.vn - E5 bio-fuel will officially be available at gas stations starting January 1st next year.

This is considered a breakthrough as it will greatly reduce the negative impacts on the environment and doesn't require any changes to the engines of current vehicles. Preparations for E5 have been completed.

The Ministry of Industry and Trade cooperated with the Ministry of Finance to draft policies on the tax of bio-fuel to encourage people to use E5. Importing E100 fuel to manufacture E5 fuel to ensure there is an adequate supply was also planned.
