The U.S. House of Representatives on May 13 voted 218 to 203 to approve the Nationwide Consumer and Fuel Retailers Choice Act. The bill aims to enable year-round E15 sales and revamp the RFS small refinery exemption (SRE) program.
The Sustainable Advanced Biofuel Refiners Coalition on May 13 announced it is pro-biofuels, pro-agriculture and pro-E15. The group, however, does not support the SRE provisions of the Nationwide Consumer and Fuel Retailer Choice Act.
Renewables are expected to account for more than 26% of U.S. electricity generation in 2026, increasing to nearly 28% in 2027, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s latest Short-Term Energy Outlook, released May 12.
