Renewable gasoline blends function like the gasoline that people are currently using and can support a lower carbon future. Here’s how:
- These blends could be used in vehicles on the road today.
- People could fill up with lower carbon intensity fuel at the same gas pumps they use now.
- Because these blends function like traditional gasoline, engine changes are not required.

Renewable gasoline blends can be made a few different ways, using byproducts. For example:

- Soybean oil is a byproduct of this crushing process.
- Soybean oil can be blended with petroleum products.
