Analysts with DTN say they spoke to officials at the Treasury Department and they say there will be guidance before the new Administration takes over.
Senator Chuck Grassley weighed in on the matter pn X, saying, “Delaying the 45Z guidance will be disruptive to the biofuels industry. The Biden administration’s climate agenda has prioritized pet projects for coastal elites and left middle America behind at every turn. That ends when Republicans take power next year.”
