Tax incentives for hybrid vehicles and ‘green’
technologies will best benefit the environment
7 in 10 consumers say that tax incentives for hybrid vehicles and adopting ‘green’ technologies will benefit the
environment most. When data is compared to Q11, data suggests that incentives for purchasing hybrids are more
favorably perceived than 'green' vehicle taxation initiatives.

1 in 2 consumers likely to resist Biofuel vehicles because of
concern about land to grow food and other resources
While consumers are open to alternative fuels biofuel adoption may continue to be a sensitive issue until it can be proven
that these fuels do not impact food or other resources.
7 in 10 consumers agree that they are much more willing to consider a vehicle that runs on electricity or alternative fuels
than in the past and demonstrates the greater awareness and heightened concerns about the environment and increasing
fuel costs.

Strategic Outlook towards 2020 and Beyond –
To be prepared for the ‘unknown’
Demand from countries like China and India likely to play a critical
part in the price and output of crude oil – Oil exploration rate, cost of
processing and quality of oil to be deciding factors
Local governments providing strategic support to Biofuels need to ensure
that short term detrimental effects are minimised while providing subsidies
and benefits to Biofuels
Oil companies forecasting price for crude oil to be about $55 - $60
by 2030; huge potential for Biofuels to contribute considering
agricultural growth
2nd Generation Biofuels to be commercially successful only if price of
extracting Biofuels is lesser than or equal to price of producing fossil fuels
