NASHVILLE, TENN. (RFD NEWS) — Clean Fuels Alliance America is launching National Fuel Quality Reports to give fuel marketers, fleets, buyers, and equipment manufacturers a broader view of fuel quality across the U.S. distribution system.

The reports cover biodiesel, diesel, gasoline grades, ethanol, aviation fuel, kerosene, and specialty fuels. That includes B99 and B100 biodiesel, B6-plus blends, E15 through E85 gasoline, Jet A, AvGas, and other fuels.

The effort builds on the BQ-9000 quality assurance program, which has tracked biodiesel quality from accredited producers since 2017. Clean Fuels says the expanded reports are designed to provide statistical analysis and improve confidence as renewable and alternative fuels grow.

For agriculture, fuel quality matters across diesel equipment, trucking, irrigation engines, biofuel demand, and farm supply chains.

The reports do not provide raw data, and Clean Fuels says they should be viewed as statistical snapshots rather than guarantees for every fuel batch.

Farm-Level Takeaway: Better fuel-quality information could help build confidence in biodiesel and ethanol blends, as well as the broader renewable fuels market.
