Methanol peaks performance because it may be used in the existing distribution system and existing vehicles.
Future engines built for methanol will demonstrate even better performance than today.
Already today FFV (Flex Fuel Vehicles) and fuel cells take full advantage of methanol and the straightforward distribution.
In the EU 3 % methanol is permitted in
regular gasoline and 30-100% in high-blends M30-M100.
The EU biofuels market is controlled by three directives - though not implemented uniformly in the Member States. :
