This legislation clarifies that credits for electricity generated from renewable fuel, known as eRINs , are not authorized for purposes of satisfying the volume requirements of the Renewable Fuel Program . The bill's primary goal is to prevent the use of these specific credits in meeting federal mandates for renewable fuel content in transportation fuel. The bill explicitly directs the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to not authorize the generation of any new eRINs for compliance with the Clean Air Act's renewable fuel provisions. Additionally, it mandates that the EPA must prohibit the use or transfer of any eRINs that were generated before the date this Act becomes law, ensuring a complete cessation of their application in the program.
