US trade groups urge EPA to set ‘strong’ multiyear renewable volume obligations

In a recent letter to US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin, the Clean Fuels Alliance America and 10 other US trade groups — including the American Petroleum Institute, which represents fuel producers, marketers and agricultural feedstock suppliers — urged the agency to set robust multiyear Renewable Volume Obligations (RVOs) in March.

“We believe that strong, steady volumes for conventional biofuel targets, biomass-based diesel [BBD] and advanced fuels would more accurately reflect the availability and ongoing investments in feedstocks and production capacity,” the groups said in the February 19 letter. “Additionally, it would reflect the increased demand in new markets, such as marine, rail and aviation.”
