BAC Comments on Proposed Changes to the LCFS

BAC submitted comments to the Air Resources Board on proposed changes to the Low Carbon Fuel Standard Program, including:

  • Support for increasing the carbon intensity requirement for 2030 and establishing 5-year interim targets between 2025 and 2045.
  • Need to prioritize fuels that reduce Short-Lived Climate Pollutants to meet the requirements of SB 1383.
  • Adopt incentives to support instate biofuels generated from organic waste.
  • Support adoption of sustainability criteria for biofuels.
  • Need to add “book and claim” for hydrogen and electricity generated from biogas, consistent with the RPS.
  • Need to accurately account for avoided landfill emissions.
