ICYMI: The message to the Senate from voters across party lines is unmistakable: They want the lower-cost #E15#ethanol fuel blend year-round. 73% of Republicans and Democrats alike agree!

There’s been a lot of chatter about recent FAPRI study suggesting year-round E15/SRE reform bill would be bad for soybeans & BBD. Just throwing this out there: FAPRI used 2026-27 BBD RVO assumptions that are 1.6 BG lower than reality in 2026 & 1.3 BG lower in 2027. They also missed extra 700 MG added to conventional RVO for both 2026-27. How can anyone take the analysis seriously given such whiffs on the RVOs? How much would their results change if they used the right numbers?!
As we’ve said all along, year-round access to lower-cost #E15 is a bipartisan, nationwide issue! Last week’s vote on HR 1346 proves it. From California to the New York island, from the redwood forest to the Gulf Stream waters, 122 Republicans, 95 Democrats, and 1 Independent united to vote for lower prices at the pump, cleaner air, a stronger farm economy, and greater energy independence. We thank them for working together to advance this crucial legislation. Now, on to the Senate, where we hope to see the same bipartisanship, cooperation, and urgency!
Questions about E15? Hearing something about May 1? Check out this infographic that explains the facts about E15 - what vehicles can use it, fuel economy, is it cheaper, is it safe & tested, better for the environment and more! #ethanol
The national average discount for E15 is now 9% under E10. Approved for 2001 & newer vehicles and all Flex Fuel Vehicles (FFVs). The most tested fuel in history is safe and proven. It requries this label when available. Lower your cost per mile - try it today. #ethanol
More E15 confusion… it is not just a midgrade fuel - it is now sold as 6 different octane levels. Hearing of 88 octane? It barely makes up half of all sales now. Why? E15 is finally taking its place in prime time and replacing regular gasoline at 87 octane. #ethanol
E15 fuel economy back center stage. Here are MPG results from California testing. Average loss was 1.3% but note some saw MPG gain! The fuel is averaging a national discount of 8% today. Your cost per mile goes down with E15 - there is no debate. Add ethanol - octane goes up, cost goes down.
This #NationalAgDay we proudly salute the many #farmers who are the backbone of our success in the American #ethanol industry. Thank you for your dedication and innovation.
As we wait for year-round E15 approval, retailers like @Sheetz are doing their part by offering it for a 50-cent discount to drivers w/ 2001 & newer vehicles (flex fuel vehicles too). Those represent nearly 98% of all light-duty vehicles on the roads today. #ethanol
Wholesale gasoline prices have surged 66% since Feb. 1, but #ethanol prices have been stable. Ethanol priced $1.17/gal. LOWER than gasoline today. Blend more ethanol to lower gas prices! Time for year-round #E15!
As the political wheels spin in DC, consumers across the country miss the opportunity to save 60 cents per gallon on E15 b/c most fuel retailers are waiting on certainty before offering E15. We have ~4,700 stations instead of 47,000 because we still do not have year-round E15. Let ethanol help! Thanks to @FkgOil for offering! @EthanolRFA@NationalCorn
Vietnam will allow only E5 & E10 to be sold nationwide starting June 1 as part of efforts to cut emissions and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Some good news for U.S. ethanol and agriculture. https://t.co/9EV4iKQG1A
RFA is pleased to sponsor a free online Ask-Me-Anything with Patrice Banks, founder of Girls Auto Clinic, creator of the Shecanic movement and #ethanol advocate. From building a nationally recognized brand, to breaking into a male-dominated industry, to what’s next for Girls Auto Clinic — nothing is off limits.

Gas prices are rising across the country as Operation Epic Fury continues. But guess which states have the lowest prices? Not coincidentally, it’s the states where #E15 is most broadly available! It’s time for year-round, nationwide E15!
