Episode description

In the wake of the elections in the US, RINS Reporter Matthew Cope and US Products Associate Editor Jason Metko play a game of "hit the brakes or hit the gas" to discuss some of the potential effects on the biofuels industry - particularly important to the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) and road fuels - under a second Donald Trump administration. 

Listen to find out if it's "hit the brakes" or "hit the gas" as we address issues including:

  • Should we expect Small Refinery Exemptions (SREs) to return under the new Trump administration?

  • Trump's pick to lead the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Lee Zeldin, previously backed a bill to eliminate the RFS. Would he do that now?

  • Trump has expressed the desire to get rid of electric vehicle (EV) subsidies. However, with Elon Musk operating an EV company, will he push Trump for more incentives?

  • Biden took a less favourable approach towards E15. Will it be different with Trump's return?
