Bill overview
The Fuel STAR Act of 2026 aims to reform the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) within the Clean Air Act. It modifies how the EPA determines renewable fuel volumes, particularly for advanced biofuels, tying them to projected domestic ethanol consumption. The bill also extends the timeframe for using credits from 2020-2022 to cover compliance for several years, while prohibiting the use of ‘e-RIN’ credits. Furthermore, it provides greater flexibility for small refineries to request exemptions from RFS requirements, considering economic hardship and refinery viability, and limits the total exempted volume for refineries under holding companies.
