ALEXANDRIA, Va., Jan. 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- NATSO, representing America's travel centers and truck stops, and SIGMA: America's Leading Fuel Marketers, issued the following statement today in response to the Biden Administration's "U.S. National Blueprint for Transportation Decarbonization," which outlines the Administration's framework for cutting transportation emissions.

Key Points: 
  • ALEXANDRIA, Va., Jan. 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- NATSO, representing America's travel centers and truck stops, and SIGMA: America's Leading Fuel Marketers, issued the following statement today in response to the Biden Administration's "U.S. National Blueprint for Transportation Decarbonization," which outlines the Administration's framework for cutting transportation emissions.
  • Touting sustainable aviation fuel as a "new method" for reducing transportation carbon emissions ignores the fact that it will unravel decades of existing carbon reductions in over-the-road transportation and increase fuel prices for commercial fleets.
  • The SAF tax credits established under the Inflation Reduction Act, and promoted in the Administration's blueprint, incentivize SAF production above renewable diesel and biodiesel.
  • NATSO and SIGMA, which collectively represent more than 80 percent of fuel retailers in the United States, look forward to continued discussions with the Administration on alternative fueling policies."
