Proponents claim that if renewable electricity is used and CO 2 is captured from the air, then the e-gasoline and e-diesel are climate-neutral fuels that will also reduce pollution. A 10% blend was chosen due to existing fleet and EN228 standard compatibility. However, said T&E, particle pollution was far from eliminated.

California’s Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS), which requires fuel producers to reduce the carbon intensity of fuel sold in the state, is largely responsible for the shift by encouraging the use and production of cleaner alternatives. If a fuel has a carbon intensity above that baseline it generates a deficit for the producer.
