18th Annual
OPIS RFS, RINs & Biofuels Forum

Navigating the Biofuels Carbon Intensity Era

The biofuels market is emerging from last year’s period of unprecedented market and policy uncertainty into a high-velocity era of carbon intensity (CI) optimization. With the transition to the 45Z Clean Fuel Production Credit and a reshaped regulatory landscape, the stakes for ethanol, renewable diesel, biodiesel, renewable natural gas and SAF producers have never been higher.

In this data-driven environment, transparent pricing and expert policy insight are no longer advantages – they’re requirements.

Hosted by OPIS, a Dow Jones Company, for the past 18 years the Forum has provided a unique blend of analytics and real world experiences, supported by the world’s most trusted energy benchmarks. Join us again this year and gain the market intelligence you need to turn policy shifts into profitability increases.

2026 is a Year You Can’t Miss!

The 18th Annual RFS, RINs & Biofuels Forum is built to move your organization from reactive to proactive. The Forum will deep dive into the forces and trends driving the market currently, in 2027, and beyond:

• 45Z in Practice: Assess the first full year of the Clean Fuel Production Credit and how CI scores are reshaping project economics and market winners.
• SAF at Scale: Go from mandates to molecules with insight into supply chains, pricing and logistics as commercial demand for SAF accelerates.
• Ethanol + CCS: Explore how emerging carbon capture projects and CI-based credits like 45Z are starting to reshape the economics of ethanol production and future investment decisions.
• Trade, Tariffs & Flows: Understand how U.S. trade policy shifts and global carbon border adjustments are redirecting international biofuels and feedstock flows.
• RFS & EPA Outlook: Hear directly from experts on the impact of the 2026-2027 Renewable Volume Obligations and the evolving legal framework around RINs and compliance strategy.
