Finally getting E15 on the road in California is a major win for the ethanol industry and could help push nationwide legislation across the finish line.

American Coalition for Ethanol (ACE) Chief Marketing Officer Ron Lamberty says California’s approval of E15 is a milestone for the U.S. fuel market.

“With California now on board, momentum for E15 is stronger than ever,” Lamberty added. “The future of the U.S. fuel market includes higher ethanol blends, and the next step is ensuring year-round, nationwide access to E15, so retailers can make changes without worrying about having to switch fuel offerings during the busiest time of their year, and drivers everywhere can rely on low-cost E15 being available every time they pull up to the pump.”

National Corn Growers Association (NCGA) President Jed Bower encouraged Congress to make E15 available year-round, nationwide. “While today’s development is a sign of progress, many consumers across the country still lack year-round access to E15. We call on Congress to pass legislation that will extend access nationwide.”
