Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) 'Set 2' Final Rule

March 27 – March 27, 2026

Where Things Stand

The Environmental Protection Agency finalized a rule requiring fuel companies to blend a record 25.82 billion gallons of biofuels into the U.S. fuel supply. This 8% increase over previous targets forces refiners to use more ethanol and other renewable fuels to meet federal mandates. The move is an executive action by the administration to support rural farmers and increase domestic energy production.
