4.93. Under Zimbabwe's ethanol programme, mandatory blending of petrol was first introduced in 2011, with a 5% blending requirement of ethanol from sugarcane; the ratio currently stands at 20% of ethanol, subject to availability. The company Green Fuel manages about 9,000 ha of sugarcane for ethanol production (about 56 million litres in 2018-19). The company Triangle Sugar produced about 23 million litres of ethanol as a by product of sugar production. The ethanol production is purchased by the registered oil companies, some of which are licensed to do the blending, although the NOIC also carries out blending.
