NEW VEHICLES

Fuel competition CAFE credit for automakers that open

at least half of the vehicles in their fleet to competing

fuels.

For flexible fuel vehicles to count as fuel competitive

vehicles, they should be gasoline-ethanol-methanol

flexible, not just gasoline-ethanol flexible.

The metric of miles-per-gallon (mpg) in CAFE should

be abandoned as the principle measurement of

success since energy density differs across fuels.

The Joint Alcohol Fuels Alliance will

advance cooperation among all alcohol

fuel producing and consuming countries in

all matters related to alternative fuel

blending. Joint actions will include

standard development, pilot projects and

demonstrations, technical roadmaps,

fueling infrastructure development,

environmental studies, as well as public

awareness and engagement.

NEW FUELS CERTIFICATION

The process of certifying a higher octane

fuel should be expanded to include all

alcohol fuels and the broadest range of

blends feasible.

SECONDARY VEHICLE MARKET

Deregulate the conversion kit market to

enable safe, but low-cost, conversions to

powering with substitute fuels.
