The Renewable Fuels Association today announced that Clean Fuels Credit Consortium (CFCC) and Boulay have joined as new associate members. Together, they bring a combination of market-driven tax credit solutions and deep financial and advisory experience that will help ethanol producers better capture value and make informed decisions in an increasingly complex operating environment.
“This is a dynamic and transformational time for the ethanol industry, and we’re excited to welcome the innovators at CFCC and Boulay to RFA’s membership,” said RFA President and CEO Geoff Cooper. “CFCC is focused on connecting verified data to real buyers in the clean fuels marketplace, helping producers participate more directly in emerging credit programs and access new sources of value. Boulay brings decades of experience advising renewable fuels companies through every stage of growth, with a strong understanding of the financial and regulatory landscape producers are navigating today. Both organizations offer practical solutions that align closely with the needs of ethanol producers.”
The Clean Fuels Credit Consortium (CFCC) converts verified operational data into Data-Enriched Commodities (DECs), enabling ethanol producers to more effectively participate in clean energy credit markets and comply with evolving programs such as 45Z. Through a network of biofuel producers, tax credit buyers, and compliance partners, CFCC connects supply with committed purchasers, helping streamline transactions and reduce delays. Its transparent, auditable approach ensures that clean fuel incentives are efficiently delivered across the value chain, creating new opportunities for producers and their partners.

Our role is to help them navigate that with confidence. RFA has been at the center of this industry's growth, and we're proud to support that work as a member."
