| WEST DES MOINES, IA: Iowa fuel terminals distributed a record amount of E15 in September, more than 47 million gallons, according to monthly fuel tax data from the Iowa Department of Revenue. E15 sales are on track to overtake E10 as Iowa’s top-selling fuel in 2026 according to Iowa Renewable Fuels Association projections, a press release stated. “September was another record month for E15, and Iowa drivers are making their preference clear,” said Iowa Renewable Fuels Association Executive Director Monte Shaw. “More than 47 million gallons in one month shows what happens when drivers have access to E15. They choose it.” E15 typically saves consumers 15 cents or more per gallon compared to E10 while supporting demand for Iowa-grown corn and strengthening America’s domestic fuel supply. “Iowa is setting the pace for E15, and the rest of the country should take notice,” Shaw said. “The demand is here, the fuel is here and consumers are ready for it. Now we need to make sure every driver who wants E15 has the opportunity to choose it.” The Iowa Renewable Fuels Association will continue advocating for year-round, nationwide E15 access so drivers across the country can benefit from greater fuel choice, savings at the pump and increased demand for American-grown renewable fuels. |
