Under the Biden Administration, the Environmental Protection Agency announced it will allow gas stations to offer E15 gas through the summer months. The agency made the move as gas prices have risen with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
E15 is a blend of gasoline with a higher level of ethanol than regular gas. Usually, it is not available at gas stations between June and September, in light of concerns that it creates smog in hot weather. However, E15 is cheaper than regular gas, and research shows that it emits fewer greenhouse gases.
