The article presents an analysis on the alternative pathways to achieve the renewable fuel standard (RFS) targets. It states that Excel spreadsheet model was used to analyze the impacts of various alternative RFS pathways including blend limit that remains at 10%, blend limit is increased to 15%, and blend limit is 10%. The analysis reveals that ethanol cannot be the sole biofuel in the U.S. market and that blend wall turn out to be an impenetrable barrier to achieve RFS.
