The purpose of the Fuel and Strengthen the American Refinery Act of 2026 is to update and reform the Renewable Fuel Standard, which is part of the Clean Air Act. The main objectives are to ensure that the amount of renewable fuel used does not exceed domestic consumption levels and to provide support for small refineries that may struggle to meet these requirements. Key provisions of the Act include several important changes. First, it sets a limit on the volume of renewable fuel that can be mandated, ensuring it aligns with the projected annual consumption of ethanol.
