Securing year-round sales of E15, a gasoline blend containing 15 percent ethanol, was a huge achievement for our industry in 2019 and the culmination of many years of hard work by Growth Energy and the biofuels industry to ensure continued market growth for higher ethanol blends. Growth Energy and Prime the Pump’s leadership in expanding the retail availability of higher blends was a central factor in achieving year-round E15 sales and demonstrating the benefits of higher ethanol blends for consumers.
Growth Energy is proud to lead industry efforts to make higher ethanol blends more available to consumers and convened a group of retail fuel experts and leading fuel retailers in Washington, D.C. for our annual Biofuels Summit to discuss the outlook for E15 today and looking forward.
