California’s Air Resources Board (CARB) proposed on Tuesday October 1 that it should include sunflower oil into its earlier proposal to limit credit eligibility on certain virgin crop-based feedstocks used to produce biomass-based diesel (BBD), Fastmarkets has heard.
CARB is also proposing to tweak the data range for triggering the Automatic Acceleration Mechanism (AAM).
The board originally proposed on August 12 to limit soybean and canola oil use as feedstocks in BBD production to a combined 20% of annual credit generation reporting.
