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.

As an OPIS, A Dow Jones Company event, the Forum combines the world’s most trusted energy benchmarks with the analytical depth of the Dow Jones network, giving you the clarity to turn policy shifts into profit.

Why Attend in 2026?

The 18th Annual RFS, RINs & Biofuels Forum is built to move your organization from reactive to proactive. We’ll dive into the market drivers that will define 2026 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.

The OPIS Advantage: Networking With Intent

At OPIS, we don’t just host meetings, we convene the marketplace.

You’ll connect with stakeholders from every segment of the supply chain, including:

• Global refiners and blenders
• Renewable diesel, ethanol and SAF producers
• Traders and risk managers
• Compliance, regulatory and sustainability leaders

Join peers and counterparties in Chicago to benchmark your strategy, stress-test your assumptions and set the pace for the year ahead.

We look forward to seeing you in Chicago this September.
