Remaining positive with bioethanol
US ethanol leaders remain optimistic about their industry’s future and achievements, despite ongoing efforts to secure E15 usage rights and enhance public recognition. The debate over fossil versus renewable energy is expected to play a role in the upcoming presidential election, with industry leaders aiming to influence policy goals related to decarbonization and sustainability. Geoff Cooper of the Renewable Fuels Association sees new policies as opportunities for growth in the ethanol sector.
Ethanol leaders in the US are upbeat and determined concerning their industry’s achievements and potential.
This, despite, once again, having to petition the White House to secure summertime freedom of use for E15 while also working to gain greater public recognition of ethanol’s strength as a positive force in the drive towards net-zero.
The march towards November’s presidential election in the US is already shining a light on the polarisation of opinions across the country, including energy.
In what promises to be a bitter contest for the keys to the White House, the fossil versus renewable debate appears relatively mild in terms of flashpoint potential.
It is a debate, nevertheless, that industry leaders need to win rather than lose, no matter who claims the presidential prize.
Policy goals
“New and emerging policies that reward or require decarbonisation, both here in the US and internationally, present real opportunities for the industry,” Geoff Cooper, Renewable Fuels Association (RFA) president and CEO, told Biofuels International.
