In October, EPA proposed to add supplemental volumes to the 2026-2027 Renewable Fuel Standards to reallocate 100% of the difference between its April estimate of small refinery exemptions and its August final action. Clean Fuels supports EPA’s proposal to reallocate 100% of the difference and split the supplemental volume between 2026 and 2027 obligations.
The Renewable Fuel Standard is helping strengthen U.S. energy security by increasing domestic supplies of biodiesel and renewable diesel. Clean Fuels Alliance America CEO Donnell Rehagen explains how record production, expanded capacity and a strong RFS can help meet diesel demand, support American agriculture and deliver competitively priced fuel options for consumers.
The credit will expire on December 31 this year unless Congress adopts the extension introduced today.

Today, the Environmental Protection Agency announced decisions on 34 petitions from small refineries exempting 29 from retiring a total of 1.76 billion RINs for 2025 compliance. At the same time, the agency announced its intention to finalize a supplemental rule before the end of October to ensure that the RINs exempted today are restored to 2026 and 2027 RFS volumes.
