Thai Government Considers Reducing Gasohol 91 Availability to Boost Biofuel Usage
Interior Minister Anutin Charnvirakul reports a significant rise in E20 fuel consumption and is evaluating a reduction in Gasohol 91 pumps to further promote bioenergy.
According to a report by Matichon Online on November 14, 2026, Thai Interior Minister Anutin Charnvirakul has expressed satisfaction with the doubling of E20 fuel usage across the country. The government is actively pursuing policies to promote bioenergy, which officials state is intended to increase income for local farmers. As part of this ongoing strategy, the Ministry is currently considering a reduction in the number of Gasohol 91 fuel dispensers at service stations to incentivize consumers to switch to alternative biofuel options.
For residents and travelers in Thailand, this potential shift in fuel availability may eventually impact refueling options at gas stations. While the government aims to support the agricultural sector through these energy policies, the specific timeline for reducing Gasohol 91 availability and the potential impact on fuel prices remain to be confirmed. Motorists are advised to monitor updates from local fuel retailers regarding any changes to the types of gasoline offered at their preferred stations. The government continues to emphasize that these measures are part of a broader effort to strengthen the national bioenergy economy.
