Before higher level blends of ethanol were finally legalized, only county, state, and Federal fleet vehicles could purchase E85 in Florida - from only 3 pumps in the state.
1.3 to 1.6: Ratio of the energy obtained from ethanol/energy expended in its production: Estimated greenhouse gas emission reduction [18] [22] [25] 86–90% (1) 10–30% (1) % GHGs avoided by using ethanol instead of gasoline, using existing crop land, without ILUC effects. EPA's estimated 2022 GHG reduction for RFS2. [107] 61% (2) 21%
