Growth Energy CEO Emily Skor

“We are grateful to President Trump for delivering on his promise to unleash the power of E15 all year-long. The approval of year-round E15 is an incredible milestone for the biofuels industry, and the result of over a decade of hard work by Growth Energy, our members, our congressional champions, and folks all across rural America who made their voices heard. With year-round E15, retailers will have the regulatory certainty they need to offer American drivers a cleaner, more affordable fuel choice throughout the year.”

Over the last decade, Growth Energy has worked with top fuel retailers to expand options for U.S. motorists. Today, E15 is sold at more than 1,800 locations in 31 states, with many more expected in the months and years ahead.
