Growth Energy relaunched its “E15 Now” campaign pressing for Senate action on a nationwide, permanent legislative fix to allow the year-round sale of E15, a higher ethanol fuel blend that costs 30 cents less per gallon on average than regular fuel.
As Californians continue to face the highest fuel prices in the country, the Renewable Fuels Association on Sept. 14 urged the California Air Resources Board to quickly finalize proposed regulations allowing the sale of lower-cost E15.
Iowa fuel terminals distributed more than 46 million gallons of E15 during August, the second highest amount on record, according to monthly fuel tax data released by the Iowa Department of Revenue, according to the IRFA.
For the first time ever, gasoline consumed by American drivers in May contained more than 11% ethanol, on average.
After an E15 implementation bill passed unanimously out of the California State Legislature, the Renewable Fuels Association is turning its attention to the annual conference of the California Fuels and Convenience Alliance.
