Renewable Fuels Association President Geoff Cooper is looking ahead to 2025. An emergency waiver was granted for E15 and summer driving, but Cooper said that is not a long-term solution. “We do have eight Midwest states that will now have the ability to sell E15 year-round at least in their states and they won’t need to worry about emergency waivers ever again. However, we still have dozens of other states where that summertime barrier remains in place. We still need Congress to step up and pass a simple legislative fix that would permanently resolve this issue on a nationwide basis.” The eight states approved for year-round E15 starting in 2025 include Minnesota and South Dakota. North Dakota opted to seek a national solution.
