The regulations at 80.1427(a)(7)(iii) say that 2008 biodiesel RINS + 2009 biodiesel RINs cannot exceed 20% of the 2010 RVO. Does this mean that 80% of the 2010 biomass-based diesel RVO has to come from 2010 RINs?
See More Frequent Questions about Fuels Registration, Reporting, and Compliance Help . The 20% rollover cap under RFS2 is the same as the rollover cap under the RFS1 program. However, the rollover cap only places a limit on previous year RINs that were NOT used for compliance in 2008 or…
