Background
CARB first adopted the LCFS regulation in 2009 and began implementation in 2011. The Board adopted amendments in 2011, readopted the regulation in 2015, and adopted amendments in 2018 and 2019. The regulation requires the reduction of the carbon intensity of California’s transportation fuels by 20 percent from 2010 levels by 2030. The regulation is one of the measures adopted by CARB, pursuant to Health and Safety Code Sections 38500-38599 (AB 32) to reduce California’s greenhouse gas emissions. It is designed to help clean the air, protect the environment, and drive the development of clean, low-carbon fuels.
