As the national trade association for the U.S. ethanol industry, the Renewable Fuels
Association (RFA) promotes policies, regulations and research and development initiatives
that will lead to the increased production and use of fuel ethanol. RFA membership
includes a broad cross-section of businesses, individuals and organizations dedicated
to the expansion of the U.S. fuel ethanol industry. Organized in 1981, RFA serves
as the voice of the ethanol industry, providing advocacy, authoritative analysis,
and important industry data to its members, Congress, federal and state government
agencies, strategic partners, the media and other opinion-leader audiences.
The RFA is governed by a Board of Directors comprised of a representative from each
producer member. The Board meets several times a year to set Association policy.
RFA producer members represent 90% of U.S. ethanol production.
Objectives:
Promote federal, state and local government policies, programs and initiatives that
encourage expanded ethanol use.
Provide technically accurate and timely information to auto manufacturers and technicians,
the media, policy makers, marketers and refiners, and the general public.
Participate in educational activities to increase public awareness regarding renewable
fuels and the positive contribution they make to American energy independence, the
economy and the environment.
Provide RFA members with the information necessary for informed business decisions.
