SF 4263 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Biofuel sales volume incentive program establishment

This bill creates a financial incentive program for Minnesota retail gasoline stations that sell specific biofuel blends containing 11 to 15 percent ethanol. Starting in 2028, eligible stations that have not previously sold these blends can receive up to five cents per gallon in payments, with a total annual cap of $50,000 per station. The program requires stations to submit monthly sales reports and verify their volumes against existing fuel sales records, with funding of $5 million appropriated from the general fund. Only stations operating in Minnesota that are not fleet operators and have not received money from the AGRI Biofuels Infrastructure Grant Program qualify for these payments.
