Ohio BD and E85 tax credits flow to consumers

 

Ohio is offering tax incentives on soybean-based B20 biodiesel as well as E85 ethanol, each retailer can lower their price per gallon by at least ten cents, making the two renewable resource fuels that much more affordable to consumers.

Ohio plans on throwing $4.5 billion at its tax credits every two years, and Mark Watkins, President of the Ohio Soybean Association (that sounds like a dream job) is also part of the National Ethanol Vehicle Coalition, who is pushing to get another $2 million from the feds, in addition to their current 30 percent tax credit. All you Ohioans can continue to enjoy your 43 E85 stations and 51 B20 stations, and look forward saving some scratch.

Following the link should have a pic of biodiesel locations in the Miami Valley.  They are missing the location of the Franklin Shell on State Route 123 just off I-75.  This story ran in the Dayton Daily News sometime last week.

Nupe, the more eyes the better.  I'd sure like to see a few more options for B20 around the Miami Valley.
