WASHINGTON, D.C.--Growth Energy, the nation's largest biofuel trade association, commended the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) today after the agency announced that it would reconsider its Multi-Pollutant Emissions Standards for Model Years 2027 and Later Light-Duty and Medium-Duty Vehicles, otherwise known as the "tailpipe emissions rule."
"We're glad to see EPA reconsider this rule, which arbitrarily puts its thumb on the scale for a single vehicle technology instead of embracing homegrown renewable fuels," said Growth Energy CEO Emily Skor. "We look forward to working with EPA as they restructure these standards in a way that achieves the agency's environmental and economic goals by maximizing the use of American biofuels."
Growth Energy has previously submitted comments and an amicus brief objecting to the tailpipe emissions rule. As Growth said in the amicus brief, the benefits of biofuels "are readily available right now, all while enhancing energy security and supporting U.S. jobs." Growth observed that the rule, in its original form, was "a missed opportunity."
