The Biden Administration released partial guidance around the 45Z Tax Credit, but there are still a lot of unknowns. Biofuel economists with CoBank say the next couple of months will be telling.
“But a lot will be left to the Trump administration, as well as those in Congress who are going to help try to advocate, especially Midwest House and Senate Republicans, will try to make sure that their voices are heard with the Trump administration as they try to take this initial release, this interim guidance, and then craft this into something that can continue to be profitable and helpful for those in the countryside, whether that’s farmers or biofuel producers,” said Jacque Fatka.
During her confirmation hearing, Brooke Rollins faced tough questions about biofuels and her family’s ties to the Texas oil industry. Despite the concerns, Rollins says she is full speed ahead for America’s biofuel industry, and her personal life will not be a factor in her decision-making.
