Renewable Fuel Standard

Program
In 2006, City Council adopted a Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) to reduce dependence on fossil fuels by requiring Portland fuel retailers to sell blends of biofuels. BPS is now updating the RFS due to changes in fuel markets and State policy, and to meet the City’s 100% Renewable Energy Resolution.
