NACS, NATSO, representing truck stops and travel centers and SIGMA: America’s Leading Fuel Marketers commended the Trump Administration for its effort to implement timely rulemakings to reorient the Renewable Fuel Standard and put it “back on track.”
 
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) 2026 and 2027 proposed Renewable Volume Obligations adhere far more closely to the market’s capacity to consume biofuel than the final volumes of 2024 and 2025. NATSO, SIGMA and NACS support the Trump Administration’s proposed trajectory in keeping the RFS program on track for growth.
 
In a letter to the EPA, the groups noted that they stand ready to work with the Administration to implement this complex regulatory standard. They said that the right policy framework will drive renewable fuel use — bolstering America’s biofuels industry — while limiting inflationary pressures on fuel prices.
 
The RFS prompts fuel retailers to incorporate biofuels into their diesel supply as a means of lowering prices for consumers and gaining market share. NACS, NATSO and SIGMA members sell approximately 90% of fuel purchased at retail in the United States, including virtually all retail sales of biodiesel and renewable diesel fuels that are incentivized under the RFS.
