TOPEKA, KAN.—Growth Energy, the nation’s largest biofuel trade association, commended the Kansas legislature and Kansas Governor Laura Kelly for enacting an incentive for fuel retailers in the state to sell E15, a fuel choice made with 15% American-made ethanol that costs less and can be used in 96% of all cars on the road today.
“Kansas is the latest addition to a growing list of states taking action to save their constituents money by increasing E15 availability,” said Growth Energy CEO Emily Skor. “Drivers, farmers, and fuel retailers will all benefit from this incentive. We applaud Gov. Kelly, and the Kansas lawmakers and state biofuels and corn organizations who championed this legislation and worked together to see it signed into law. While this is welcome news for Kansans, we hope that Congress is paying attention and delivers the same savings to all Americans by passing a nationwide, year-round fix for E15 as soon as possible. Consumers can’t wait any longer.”
