Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM) hosted the 17th lecture of its ‘Environment Series’. Focused on the theme ‘Sustainable Road map for Fuels in the Automotive sector’, it drew attention to adopt a fuel-agnostic approach for the automotive industry to mitigate climate change and attain its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The session had speakers deliberating on an array of linked subjects like energy security, national priority and pollution mitigation of cities driven by a comprehensive and considerate approach of Government of India (GoI).

It involves de carbonisation in a very systematic manner involving goal posts over a near, mid-to long-term basis.. “Meeting the sustainable fuel road map will be a challenge for both, the automotive and Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs),” commented Dr R K Malhotra, Director General of the Federation of Indian Petroleum Industry (FIPI) as he opened the floor for and against the school of thought.
