Drivers will soon have the option of using homegrown ethanol-based fuel in
Houston and Dallas.Kroger -- in a collaboration with General Motors -- will
begin offering the alternative fuel known as E-85 at their supermarket pumps
starting in May. E-85 is a blend of 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent
gasoline. It's a high-octane, domestically produced renewable fuel that's
typically made with corn. Lieutenant Governor David Dewhurst today took part in an event in Austin to promote use of alternative fuels.
Dewhurst says renewable energy plays an
important role in protecting the environment and helping the state meet its
future energy needs.
