2G Ethanol:
India allowed the export of 2G ethanol, with mandatory export licenses and feedstock certificates.2G (Second-Generation) ethanol is an advanced biofuel made from non-food, lignocellulosic biomass such as agricultural residues, forestry waste, woody biomass, algae, and municipal solid waste.
Unlike 1G ethanol (from edible crops like sugarcane, maize), 2G uses waste materials, ensuring food security and sustainable fuel use.
