Reynolds Visits Central Iowa Farm To Sign E15, B20 Requirement Into Law

Statewide Iowa — Governor Kim Reynolds has signed a bill into law that will significantly expand the number of Iowa gas stations that sell E-15 — fuel that has a 15 percent ethanol blend.

Stations that sell less than 300,000 gallons of gasoline annually or have older tanks and pumping systems that are not compatible with ethanol can apply for waivers — but the rest will have to start selling E-15 by 2026.

The law also requires most retailers that sell diesel to start selling diesel with 20 percent of a soybean-based additive. It’s called B-20. Reynolds signed the bill on a farm near Prairie City, flanked by tractors and farm equipment as well as legislators who worked on the bill.
