Trump to lift summertime limits on high-ethanol gasoline
The Trump administration plans a policy shift to allow year round sale of E15 gasoline, expanding the ethanol market and aiding corn farmers. The announcement could come in coming weeks, possibly in Iowa, amid pressure from farmers and biofuel groups. About 1,430 filling stations currently offer E15 versus over 122,000 stations nationwide for E10. The move addresses seasonal vapor pressure rules that have blocked E15 during smog-prone months.
