The U.S. compliance fuel market is undergoing a pivotal shift – from volume mandates to carbon performance. Tire- and plastic-derived pyrolysis oils (TPO & PPO) are now emerging as competitive low-carbon fuel options under key programs like the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) and Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS).

Our latest expert report details the regulatory, technical, and economic landscape for monetizing pyrolysis oils in the U.S.:

  • ✔️ Why TPO holds dual potential: partially renewable and eligible today under LCFS – and potentially under RFS with EPA pathway approval
  • ✔️ How PPO, while fossil-based, can still qualify for LCFS credits if lifecycle carbon intensity (CI) is low enough
  • ✔️ What EPA and others require: CI modeling, ¹⁴C testing, Tier 2 applications, and co-processing pathways
  • ✔️ Where to start: Why California and emerging LCFS states potentially offer early revenue opportunities
  • ✔️ How imported vs. domestic feedstock origin impacts credit value and refinery integration

For pyrolysis oil stakeholders, this is a critical window to align product specs, certifications, and documentation with U.S. fuel credit markets.
