As of recent data, the United States consumes approximately 15 billion gallons of ethanol annually, primarily as a fuel additive in gasoline. This equates to about 10% of the total gasoline supply, contributing significantly to the nation's renewable energy portfolio. Ethanol helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions and reliance on fossil fuels, aligning with environmental goals and energy independence initiatives.
