This decree aims to promote the competitive biodiesel Development Program in its initial phase by establishing the Price Stabilization Fund of Biodiesel. The objective of the Decree is to diminish and contain the impacts of volatile fuel prices on local economy by promoting greater use of biodiesel.

The fund allows to finance the extra costs that will be incurred by PETROPAR in the production of biodiesel. Essentially, the fund supports the purchase of biodiesel at the reference prices established by Art 36 of Decree 10.703.The fund is financed by a levy of 4py/litre (.01USD/litre) on sales of diesel by PETROPAR. Additionally, it obtained all the proceeds from the decree 5984/99 since the month of October in 2011 up to the effective day of this decree.

A pattern, not a one-off The strategy began in Venezuela. Since US…

The oil will come from the reserve's West Hackberry site in Louisiana and is available for immediate delivery. Lake Charles…

Why Trump and Carney Haven’t Touched Energy in Their Tariff War

The United States and Canada are locked in an energy trade war – sort of. Although United States President Donald Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney have lobbed plenty of blisteringly high tariffs, not to mention threats and insults, at each other over the course of their respective tenures, they have not touched one very important commodity – oil and gas. This is because the nations are simply too dependent on each other to sever the ties between their respective fossil fuel empires, making true independence a purely pyrrhic…

NASA's Freeze-Resistant Moon Battery Could Eventually Reach EVs
