The U.S. Grains Council (USGC) recently developed a series of infographics promoting the numerous financial and environmental benefits of biofuels, an explainer on various sustainability benchmarks for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and an update on global ethanol blending policies.
SAF is the next major development in biofuel application, with the potential to greatly reduce the carbon emissions of air travel, and the Council’s infographic clearly shows the differences between the Corsia and GREET models of environmental impact assessments.
The Council seeks to show international policymakers and industry stakeholders that U.S. ethanol is an affordable, abundant, compatible and sustainable way for countries to meet their carbon reduction commitments. The Council’s infographic reflecting these qualities serves as a simple yet effective reminder to customers about why U.S. ethanol is the right choice.
Lastly, the Council designed a world map with ethanol blending rates displayed for each country, showing U.S. producers and the Council’s fellow cooperators where future opportunities lie for the industry.
These infographics, along others related to commodity uses, export data from marketing year 2023/2024 and more, are available for download on the Council’s website.
