The Next Generation Fuels Act has been reintroduced in the U.S. Senate.
Iowa Republican Chuck Grassley says the legislation would leverage higher-octane fuels to improve engine efficiency and performance.
“It also requires the added octane value to reduce carbon emissions by at least 40 percent compared to regular gasoline. This means higher blends of ethanol will be required.”
Grassley lead a bipartisan group of Senators in reintroducing the bill, including Minnesota’s Amy Klobuchar, Joni Ernst of Iowa, and Tammy Duckworth of Illinois.
