The National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP) reported that Resolution 855/2021 “allows the sale of hydrous ethanol between suppliers (producers and importers) and resellers in any municipalities”, and not only from a plant to a service station from the same municipality, as sources had beforehand informed. The follow that is limited to the same municipality, says the agency, is the “delivery” of fuels, regulated by ANP Resolution No. 858/2021. “In this case, the refueling of vehicles exterior the institution is barely allowed as much as the boundaries of the municipality where the retailer approved by the ANP that will perform the service is positioned.” By vetoing, in the Official Gazette (DOU) on Tuesday (4), articles of a Provisional Measure that dealt with the direct sale of ethanol, the General Secretariat of the Presidency of the Republic granted that the vetoes do not prevent this type of sale. “since this matter could be regulated by the ANP (National Agency for Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP), which has already regulated this matter”.
