Renewable Fuel Infrastructure Program
The Renewable Fuel Infrastructure Board’s mission is to oversee the Renewable Fuel Infrastructure Program for Retail Motor Fuel Sites and for Biodiesel Terminal Facilities.
Federal Renewable Fuel Infrastructure Grant Program
The 2007 energy bill established a new Renewable Fuel Infrastructure Grant Program in which the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is authorized to make grants available to assist retail and wholesale fuel dealers with E85 infrastructure or blender pumps.
The grants can provide assistance totaling up to 33% of the cost to install, replace, or convert fuel equipment, or $180,000 for a combination of equipment at any one retail location. The DOE must adopt rules for the program by 2009. The grant program is subject to annual appropriations from Congress. The American Coalition for Ethanol will post details of the grant program on its website, www.ethanol.org as soon as they become available.
