The US Environmental Protection Agency released its expected Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) detailing the implementation of changes to the existing Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS1) as required by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA). First, EISA requires that such fuel be made from renewable biomass.

Since the end of 2018, the company has been conducting CO 2 workshops together with its suppliers to agree on effective measures. The biggest levers for this are the changeover to green electricity and the supply of heat from renewable energy sources. The generation of renewable energy will start in 2020.

Currently, the average renewable-fuel blending in Canada’s fuels is more than 7% ethanol in gasoline, which exceeds the 5% level set out in the Renewable Fuels Regulations, and about 2% renewable content in diesel fuel, which meets the regulatory level. Some jurisdictions (e.g., natural gas and propane); and solid fuels (e.g.,

And if you talked with Lawrence Cooper he’d probably tell you it would be a big help in getting to 33% renewable energy in California. You’d think it would be a no-brainer with our Renewable Portfolio Standard requiring electric companies to offer 20% of all electricity to be generated from renewable sources.
