No Fuel Credits for Batteries: Changes to Renewable Fuel Program

This bill aims to stop the issuance of special credits (eRINs) for electricity generated from renewable sources used in transportation. This means fuel producers will no longer be able to count battery-generated electricity towards their renewable fuel volume requirements. Any previously generated credits of this type will also be invalidated, potentially impacting the costs and availability of certain fuels.
Key points
Prohibits the generation of credits for renewable electricity used in transportation under the Renewable Fuel Program.
Invalidates all previously generated credits for battery-generated electricity.
May influence fuel companies' strategies and the development of electric vehicle technology regarding renewable fuel mandates.
