Renewable diesel as a drop-in fuel for diesel combustion engines is starting to gain traction in the U.S. trucking industry, said suppliers, distributors and federal energy researchers.

The Clean Fuels Alliance America filed a lawsuit against EPA for adopting a heavy-duty truck regulation that the group claims fails to evaluate the use of biodiesel and renewable diesel.

More renewable fuel from Iowa producers could soon be flowing thanks to a funding increase from the state.

There are operational and environmental gains to be realized for fleets that favor renewable diesel fuel over battery-electric vehicles, according to a new ATRI study.

Nearly half of $18.89 million in U.S. Department of Agriculture biofuel grants recently awarded to 22 states will be funneled to projects that increase biodiesel storage, distribution and dispensing.

U.S. biofuel production is burgeoning in the race to meet federal and state government mandates to lower heavy truck emissions.

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker celebrated groundbreaking at a $250 million soybean processing plant expansion that would contribute to increased production of biodiesel.

The West Coast’s growing demand for renewable diesel and biodiesel fuel will drive petroleum diesel usage there next year to the lowest level in more than a decade, according to the U.S. EIA.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced that up to $500 million in federal funds are available to boost supplies of American-made biofuel.

A trucking campaign promoting biodiesel fuel to easily lower carbon emissions by the state soybean farmers has been such a success in raising awareness it may be repeated.
