Energy Website Reports on Low Carbon Fuel Recommendations
The energy website FierceEnergy reported on recommendations for a national low carbon standard for transportation fuels from a consortium of scientists from six of the nation’s leading research institutions, including the University of Maine. UMaine economist Jonathan Rubin is a member of the National LCFS (low carbon fuel standard) Project, which released a series of studies last week in Washington, D.C. Fuels could be cleaner and cheaper if the United States adopted such a standard, the group said. Rubin’s participation was also listed in the Portland Press Herald’s “Washington Notebook” column. A UMaine news release has more details.
