The more biodiesel/biofuel in a gallon of petrol, the less we import and more fuel independent we become. NO argument there.

The point wechoose makes is that currently anything greater than a 5% biodiesel blend voids diesel manufacturer warranties. Even if it meets the ASTM standards.

Warranties are separate from ASTM standards. Both are also separate from EPA certification. In order to sell this retail, you will need all three components. Even with off the shelf ingredients and meeting ASTM standards, it is a new fuel and will need the EPA to sign off on it one way or another.

Of course a retailer can sell anything he wants, but than he excepts all liability for the diesel warranties and EPA. Not too many will jump onto that boat until they know for certain the certs are present.

Fortunately we spun off SSTP to generate electricity and avoid these problems anyway.
