The biofuels industry is beginning to look ahead to 2025 and the new administration taking over leadership in Washington D.C. Renewable Fuels Association Senior Vice-President for Government and Public Affairs Troy Bredenkamp says President-elect Trump has a record on year-round E15, despite the courts blocking his earlier executive order

The Biden EPA approved summertime E15, but only in eight Midwest states, beginning next year.
Separately, Bredenkamp expects the President-elect to upend another rule, one Trump considers an electric vehicle mandate.

And then there’s the delayed 45Z tax credit, critical to the promising new sustainable aviation fuel market.

RFA’s Bredenkamp expects the final 45Z tax credit rule to be simpler, unbundling and adding climate smart farming practices.
