The Renewable Fuels Association (RFA) is calling on the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to expedite its approval process for E15, a blend of 15% ethanol and 85% gasoline. RFA argues CARB’s delays in approving E15 are hindering potential air quality and emissions improvements. The letter from RFA highlights the benefits of E15, including reduced emissions of pollutants like particulate matter, carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons compared to E10. RFA also emphasizes the lower carbon intensity of E15 compared to gasoline and E10. The organization urges CARB to act swiftly to approve E15, citing the potential environmental and health benefits of the fuel for California.
