Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
Summary
The Fuel STAR Act changes how renewable fuel volumes are set, tying them to the Energy Information Administration’s annual outlook and limiting how much non‑advanced biofuel can be required. It creates a new exemption process for small refineries—those under 10,000 barrels per day that began operating after 2007—based on economic hardship criteria, and it allows gasoline with up to 15% ethanol (E15) to be sold year‑round. The bill also adjusts credit usage rules and bans a mandatory electric‑fuel credit.
