arbcombo -- Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) Certified Ethanol Pathways Release
Posted: 06 May 2016 16:59:08
Staff will be releasing the first full set of ethanol pathways certified under the readopted LCFS regulation using the CA-GREET 2.0 model on May 9, 2016. These pathways include both new applications and requests to have “legacy” pathways (adopted under the prior LCFS rule) recertified. All of the certified carbon intensities released will be for ethanol pathways but similar batches will be released for other fuel types in the future as detailed in earlier workshop presentations. On April 22, 2016 staff sent each of the ethanol pathways (both recertified and new) for review and acceptance by the individual applicants. Only those pathways accepted by applicants are being certified and will be released on May 9, 2016. These certified pathways may be used for credit reporting purposes beginning with reports for the first quarter of 2016. Background on the LCFS The Low Carbon Fuel Standard is a regulation to reduce the carbon intensity of fuels sold in California ten percent by 2020. The LCFS is one of the measures adopted by the California Air Resources Board, pursuant to Health and Safety Code Sections 38500-38599 (AB 32) to reduce greenhouse gases in California. It is designed to help clean the air, protect the environment, and drive the development of clean, low-carbon fuels to improve California's energy security and energy independence.
