Growth Energy says E15 could save $10.1B in fuel costs this summer

In Washington, Growth Energy announced that Americans could potentially save more than $10.1 billion in fuel costs this summer thanks to an emergency summer E15 waiver issued earlier this year by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The waiver allowed for the continued sale of E15, a fuel blend made with 15% American ethanol that costs less than ordinary fuel and can be used in 96% of cars on the road today. If American drivers chose E15 (also sold as Unleaded 88) instead of standard E10 fuel this summer, they could collectively save more than $10.1 billion, according to Growth Energy’s analysis.
