Today, Treasury Department and the #IRS released guidance on the §45Z Clean Fuel Production Credit, which came into effect on January 1: bit.ly/4h82ffJ Key highlights include: ✅ Registered producers can now calculate and claim the credit until formal rules are finalized. ✅

Biofuel stakeholders say US treasury department’s 45Z guidance is lacking, incomplete and too little too late biobased-diesel.com/post/biofuel-s… #biofuels #45Z #cleanfuels #production #taxcredit #US #policy #biodiesel #renewablediesel #SAF #biobaseddiesel

At first blush, the #45Z notice of intent doesn’t seem to do anything to incentivize using #corn #ethanol as a feedstock for #SAF over imported sugarcane ethanol from #Brazil. Treasury & USDA may need to think this through a little further. Still waiting for 45ZCF-GREET to drop.

🔥 In the White House’s latest Exec Order issued today, #biofuels was listed as one of our country’s “amazing national assets” that the U.S. will use to reduce our dependence on foreign imports & grow our economy. Great start to the weekend for biofuels. See you all at the NEC.

Biodiesel in the winter? No problem! Cold weather can impact all diesel fuels, but that doesn’t mean you have to park your equipment when the temperatures drop. Understanding cold flow operability is key to ensuring engines run smoothly on these frigid mornings. Here are some

Trump has never clearly defined the term “Green New Scam”, requiring people to speculate as to which issues fall in the GNS bucket. USDA made it clear yesterday that #biofuels are SAFE from Trump’s ire toward the GNS. What about #45Z, #45Q, #45V, etc.? Are they safe too?

ASTM’s #petroleum products, liquid #fuels, and lubricants committee (D02) is developing a new test method for rapid kinematic #viscosity measurement. go.astm.org/4bVelY9

Kudos to NACS/NATSO/SIGMA for standing up & fighting for their members, but keep in mind that the EPA cannot restore the BTC. It is a law that expired at the end of 2024. In order for the BTC to return, legislation must be passed and signed into law by President Trump. #biofuels

Quick reminder that starting today (April 1, 2025), biodiesel and renewable diesel must be produced in Canada to be eligible for British Colombia's #LCFS. The minimum renewable volume for diesel is 8%.

ASTM is hosting a series of #aviation #fuel events this week in #Brussels, Belgium. The schedule includes technical meetings, a synthetic aviation turbine fuel (#SATF) seminar, and a two-day aviation #fuels training program.

🚨Under Trump’s latest exec order, every state with either an #LCFS or laws regulating #GHG emissions or imposing #carbon taxes needs to gear up to litigate against the feds. Trump specifically calls out CA, NY and VT, but rest assured that WA, OR & other red states will be sued.

Did you know that Michigan is home to two BQ-9000® accredited biodiesel producers? Thumb BioEnergy, located in Sandusky, recycles used cooking oil from over 1,200 restaurants to create ultra-low-carbon biodiesel. Meanwhile, Adrian's W2 Fuel produces clean, renewable biodiesel

Called BrightspeedHelp internet to set up new service at our new home. In spite of their website stating fiber internet is available at our address, I was told that there is some sort of issue but a ticket would be opened and resolved in 3-5 days. 2 wks later and still no answer

Investing in biomass-based diesel = investing in America. A 5.25B gallon #RFS BBD volume secures long-term economic stability, supporting jobs, farms & energy independence. Tell U.S. EPA: #525in525 tinyurl.com/556ckesh

🚨INCREDIBLY BUSY MORNING FOR #BIOFUELS. In addition to submitting a proposed rule to the White House OMB for the RFS mandates, the EPA submitted a final rule regarding a partial waiver of the 2024 Cellulosic Biofuel Volume Requirement. #ethanol #RINs

If you would like to meet up in Houston next month to talk #SAF, #ethanol-to-jet, #45Z, etc., please reach out. I'll be in town to moderate a great panel on SAF offtake agreements on June 11.

President Trump will sign the bill into law on July 4, which will settle the weeks-long battle over competing #45z proposals. Now it’s time to iron out the regs and move things forward (and catch up on sleep). #biofuels #ethanol #SAF cnn.com/politics/live-…
