Total renewable fuel, such as ethanol
“EPA has approved fuel pathways under the RFS program under all four categories of renewable fuel,” accord to the EPA’s RFS website. “Advanced pathways already approved include ethanol made from sugarcane; jet fuel made from camelina; cellulosic ethanol made from corn stover; compressed natural gas from municipal wastewater treatment facility digesters; and others.”
Expectations for the Next Phase
Beginning in 2023, the EPA assumes the responsibility for mandating volumes from Congress.
“Some of the groups, such as the American Petroleum Institute [API] are advocating for the EPA to use the RFS to encourage increased use of advanced and cellulosic biofuels, instead of conventional biofuels such as ethanol,” according to Reuters.
