The Biden administration is slated to grant a request from Midwestern state leaders to allow the year-round sale of higher blends of ethanol in gasoline beginning in 2025, a decision likely to be met with mixed reactions from the states, which had pushed for the expansion but not the delayed start date.
The action, reported by Reuters, would fulfill a petition filed in 2022 by the governors of Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin, who had asked the administration for year-round sales of E15 gasoline, which is 15% ethanol.
