Biodiesel lobby back-peddles on Minnesota B2 blame

摘要

The alternative fuels lobby was quick to blame jobbers when bad fuel showed up in a key Midwest market. In a statement issued to the press, the National Biodiesel Board (NBB) claimed that some jobbers may blend "levels of biodiesel as high as B50, in some cases, B100, without properly considering cold weather implications." While allowing that some of the problems may be due to B2, the NBB said it was possible that jobbers were over-blending, trying to take advantage of the price differential between biodiesel prices and high-priced fossil diesel.
