Recently, the Energy Resources Center made headlines by saying the EPA’s shift on the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) would equal adding 1 million more passenger vehicles on the road. It’s also a political lightning rod given the stagnation of fuel consumption matched with accelerating ethanol blending. Carbon Intensity.

The project identifies possible paths to a low-carbon, low-petroleum future in the US transportation sector, and also looks beyond technology to examine the marketplace, consumer behavior, industry capabilities, and infrastructure. The transportation sector accounts for 71% of total US petroleum consumption and 33% of total carbon emissions.

Both proposals have the additional advantage of generating funds which may be used to increase investments in low CI fuel technologies. The LCFS program calls for a 10% reduction in the carbon intensity of fuel sold in California over the next decade. The program is agnostic as to which fuels can be used to meet the Standard.

We urge European governments and Parliamentarians to support the full carbon accounting of biofuels in order to fix the failing EU biofuels policy once and for all. Commenting on the vote, European environmental NGO Transport & Environment noted that the lack of a mandate creates further uncertainty on the future of biofuels in Europe.
