THE DEPARTMENT of Energy (DoE) is allowing the temporary rollout of Euro II, or fuels that meet an older emission standard with higher sulfur content, for select transport and industrial uses to augment fuel supply.

The measure aims to help keep adequate fuel supply, while allowing limited flexibility for sectors that may be affected, the department said.
