Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Federal policy has played a key role in the emergence of the U.S. biofuels industry. Policy measures include minimum renewable fuel usage requirements, blending and production tax credits, an import tariff, loans, and research grants. This report focuses on the mandated minimum usage requirements, the RFS, whereby a minimum volume of biofuels is to be used in the national transport. fuel supply each year. It describes the general nature of the RFS mandate and its implementation, and outlines some emerging issues related to the sustainability of the continued growth in U.S. biofuels production needed to fulfill the expanding RFS mandate, as well as the emergence of potential unintended consequences of this rapid expansion. A print on demand report.

Book excerpt: The Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) establishes minimum volumes of various types of renewable fuels that must be included in the U.S.'s supply of fuel for transportation. Those volumes -- as defined by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA) -- are intended to grow each year through 2022. Recently, the requirements of the RFS have been met largely by blending gasoline with ethanol made from cornstarch. In the future, EISA requires the use of increasingly large amounts of "advanced biofuels," which include diesel made from biomass (such as soybean oil or animal fat), ethanol made from sugarcane, and cellulosic biofuels (made from converting the cellulose in plant materials into fuel). A main goal of the Renewable Fuel Standard is to reduce U.S. emissions of greenhouse gases, which contribute to climate change. Policymakers and analysts have raised concerns about the RFS, particularly about the feasibility of complying with the standard, whether it will increase prices for food and transportation fuels, and whether it will lead to the intended reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. This analysis evaluates how much the supply of various types of renewable fuels would have to increase over the next several years to comply with the RFS. It also examines how food prices, fuel prices, and emissions would vary in an illustrative year, 2017, under three scenarios for the Renewable Fuel Standard. Figures and tables.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Established by Congress as an amendment to the Clean Air Act, the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) mandates that U.S. transportation fuel contain a minimum volume of renewable fuel. The mandated minimum volume increases annually and must be met using both conventional biofuel (e.g., cornstarch ethanol) and advanced biofuel (e.g., cellulosic ethanol). For a renewable fuel to be applied toward the mandate, it must be used for certain purposes (transportation fuel, jet fuel, or heating oil) and meet certain environmental and biomass feedstock criteria.

This book was released on 2015-01-14 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) was established under the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct05, P.L. 109-58), and was later expanded under the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA; P.L. 110-140), in accordance with efforts at that time to reduce dependence on foreign oil, promote biofuel use, and stabilize transportation fuel prices, among other goals. Over 15 years, the RFS requires that increasing amounts of biofuels-36 billion gallons by 2022-be used in transportation fuel. The mandate is to be accomplished in part with advanced biofuels, including cellulosic biofuels-fuels produced from cellulosic materials including grasses, trees, and agricultural and municipal wastes-which would increase over time to comprise some 44% of the RFS in 2022. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is required to set the annual standard (i.e., usage requirement) for cellulosic biofuels under the RFS if the projected volume of cellulosic biofuel production is less than the volume specified in the statute (i.e., the mandate). Under this circumstance, EPA can lower the annual cellulosic biofuels standard to the volume expected to be available for that year. If EPA lowers the standard for a given year, it is required to do so by November 30 of the preceding year. EPA concluded that the nation lacked sufficient production capacity to meet the RFS cellulosic biofuels mandate each year from 2010 to 2014. In 2010, EPA reduced the mandate from the statutory volume of 100 million gallons to 6.5 million ethanol-equivalent gallons, in 2011 from 250 million gallons to 6.0 million ethanol-equivalent gallons, in 2012 from 500 million gallons to 10.45 million ethanol-equivalent gallons, and in 2013 from 1 billion gallons to 810,185 ethanol-equivalent gallons. EPA proposes to lower the 2014 mandate from 1.75 billion gallons to 17 million ethanol-equivalent gallons, and to rescind the 2011 cellulosic biofuel standard. The 2010-2012 reduced mandates were not met by actual cellulosic biofuel production, which EPA reports was limited. Instead, these mandates were largely met with waiver credits. EPA announced in November 2014 that the 2013 compliance deadline will take place in 2015, and that it intends to finalize the 2014 standard in 2015. This delay-which is a year past the statutory deadline-raises significant uncertainty for biofuel producers, feedstock growers, and refiners. For years, actual cellulosic biofuel production has significantly fallen short of the RFS mandates. However, there were noteworthy occurrences in 2014 for the industry, including the opening of three commercial-scale cellulosic ethanol plants in Iowa and Kansas with a combined production capacity of up to 52 million gallons per year. There was also the November 2014 bankruptcy filing by the company KiOR, which commenced operations of the first commercial-scale cellulosic fuel facility in 2012 in Mississippi.

This book was released on 2018-07-21 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fuels and Fuel Additives Regulations - Renewable Fuel Pathways - Renewable Fuel Standard Program (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Fuels and Fuel Additives Regulations - Renewable Fuel Pathways - Renewable Fuel Standard Program (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 EPA is issuing a final rule identifying additional fuel pathways that EPA has determined meet the biomass-based diesel, advanced biofuel or cellulosic biofuel lifecycle greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction requirements specified in Clean Air Act section 211(o), the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) Program, as amended by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA). This final rule describes EPA's evaluation of biofuels produced from camelina (Camelina sativa) oil and energy cane; it also includes an evaluation of renewable gasoline and renewable gasoline blendstocks, and clarifies our definition of renewable diesel. The inclusion of these pathways creates additional opportunity and flexibility for regulated parties to comply with the advanced and cellulosic requirements of EISA and provides the certainty necessary for investments to bring these biofuels into commercial production from these new feedstocks. This book contains: - The complete text of the Fuels and Fuel Additives Regulations - Renewable Fuel Pathways - Renewable Fuel Standard Program (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) - A table of contents with the page number of each section

This book was released on 2011-07-17 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) was expanded under the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA; P.L. 110-140) in an effort to reduce dependence on foreign oil, promote biofuel use, and stabilize transportation fuel prices, among other goals. Over a 15-year period, the RFS seeks to establish a market for biofuels in the transportation sector by requiring that increasing amounts of biofuels 36 billion gallons by 2022 be blended into transportation fuel. The mandate is to be accomplished with an assortment of advanced biofuels, including cellulosic biofuels fuels produced from cellulosic materials including grasses, trees, and agricultural and municipal wastes. However, analysis suggested the U.S. did not have sufficient cellulosic biofuel production capacity to meet the 2010 and 2011 RFS mandate instituted by Congress in EISA, and this is likely to continue for the 2012 mandate. Contents of this report: Introduction; What Are Cellulosic Biofuels?; What Is the Relationship Between Cellulosic Biofuels and the Renewable Fuel Standard?; What Challenges Are Associated with Cellulosic Biofuels Production?; Was the Revised 2010 RFS Mandate for Cellulosic Biofuels Met?; Will the 2011 Cellulosic Biofuel Mandate Be Met?; What Impact Will Significantly Lowering the 2010, 2011, and 2012 RFS Mandates Have on Investment in Cellulosic Biofuel Production?; How Much Cellulosic Feedstock Exists for Conversion to Biofuels?; How Many Commercial Cellulosic Biofuel Plants Exist?; What Policy Options Are Available to Meet the Congressionally Mandated RFS for Cellulosic Biofuels?
