Given the biogenic carbon capture of crops, Ethanol as a fuel has a much lower environmental impact than the traditional fossil fuels. Thus for India, with a large agricultural sector and a dependence on crude oil imports, biofuels can act as a key element of its decarbonization and energy security strategy.
