Iowa biodiesel retailers were awarded the lion’s share of $1.12 million in state grants to boost their biofuel capacity through new and expanded infrastructure projects.

The EPA's plan this week to relax rules aimed at cleaning up auto tailpipe emissions is the latest Trump administration move to undo incentives for automakers to go electric.

The rule had "put the trucking industry on a path to economic ruin and would have crippled our supply chain, disrupted deliveries and raised prices," said ATA President Chris Spear.

The national average diesel price inched down seven-tenths of a cent to $3.805, stopping a streak of three straight increases, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

The Trump administration is formally proposing to scrap the U.S. government’s authority to regulate greenhouse gases as an air pollutant.

The move was described as a nod to commitments made in the Clean Truck Partnership deal that California forged with truck manufacturers as part of the state’s emissions reduction efforts.

Indiana lawmakers voted to seek federal authority to become the first state that charges tolls on interstate highways, a move taken over the objections of state truckers.

Optimism is growing at truck maker Paccar about order levels and demand for new tractors in the second half of 2025 and in 2026, said CEO Preston Feight.

The depot will include at least eight trailer-enabled fast-charge stalls for Class 8 trucks, alongside chargers for medium- and light-duty vehicles, with 24/7 access.

With federal incentives meant to encourage EV sales set to disappear later this year, things are likely to get even more challenging in the coming months.
