ANKENY, IOWA (April 9, 2020) — A report released by the Iowa Department of Revenue shows biodiesel-blended fuel represented 69.9 percent of the total reported sales of on-road diesel last year in Iowa. Furthermore, blends of 11–20 percent biodiesel (B11–B20) made up most of those sales.

ANKENY, IOWA (December 17, 2019) — The Iowa Biodiesel Board today praised Congressional champions for introducing a five-year extension of the federal biodiesel tax incentive. If passed, the bill would provide desperately-needed relief to biodiesel producers in Iowa and beyond, who have endured years of uncertainty and loss.

Grant Kimberley, executive director of the Iowa Biodiesel Board and Iowa Soybean Association director of market development, issued the following statement:

ANKENY, IOWA (November 20, 2019) — Members of the Iowa Biodiesel Board and Iowa Soybean Association joined forces with other biodiesel advocates on Capitol Hill this week, urging Congress to pass an extension of the biodiesel tax-incentive by December.

ANKENY, IOWA (October 30, 2019) — The newly-elected chair and others from the Iowa Biodiesel Board testified at the Environmental Protection Agency’s public hearing on the supplemental proposal for meeting the volume-requirements of the Renewable Fuel Standard. The IBB joined other industry leaders in asking EPA to account for the effect of past small-refinery exemptions and increase advanced biofuel and biomass-based diesel-volumes that drive growth in renewable-fuel production.
