The Trump Administration is planning to increase the amount of biofuels that refiners blend into the fuel over the next two years, according to MSN.
The EPA proposed total blending volumes at 24 billion gallons in 2026 and about 24.5 billion in 2027, compared to the 22.33 billion gallon requirements in 2025.
U.S. Senator Deb Fischer released her statement regarding the announcement.
“The EPA’s newly proposed rule rightly recognizes the vital role America’s farmers and biofuel producers play in strengthening our energy independence. Setting the conventional volume for fuels like ethanol at 15 billion gallons and boosting biomass-based diesel well above expectations is a strong win for Nebraska and the rest of rural America. I thank the administration for their continued commitment to agriculture and biofuels – their leadership supports Nebraska’s corn, soybean, and biofuel industries. I look forward to working with them to ensure these promising proposals are finalized and fully implemented.”
