The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released its April update on renewable fuel and Renewable Identification Number (RIN) generation under the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) on Thursday afternoon. Renewable diesel (RD) and RIN production showed a sharp increase from the month prior, a likely indicator feedstock demand will rise.
