Clean Fuels Alliance America, American Farm Bureau Federation, American Soybean Association, National Oilseed Processors Association, North American Renderers Association, and U.S. Canola Association have asked EPA to propose and finalize the 2026 biomass-based diesel volume at 5.25 billion gallons, with equivalent increases in the advanced biofuel and overall renewable fuel volumes.

This is a 1.9 billion gallon increase from the 2025 biomass-based diesel volume, which EPA set in 2023. It is consistent with built U.S. production capacity and with domestic feedstock supplies. It is also consistent with growing demand from U.S. markets, including rail, aviation, and marine.

Please contact your legislators and EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin to emphasize the need for 2026 biomass-based diesel volumes to reach 5.25 billion gallons. 

Setting these volumes for 2026 and establishing consistent growth for 2027 and beyond based on the industry’s investments and projections will ensure that American consumers can access affordable and clean transportation options. These volumes will support farm security, create jobs and economic opportunity, and further President Trump’s goal for U.S. energy dominance.
