H3522

To establish a clean fuel standard

Introduced·2/27/25
Introduced Text

Establishes a clean fuel standard to reduce carbon intensity of transportation fuels in Massachusetts.

The bill establishes a clean fuel standard in Massachusetts to reduce the aggregate carbon intensity of transportation fuels by 80% from 1990 levels by 2050. It creates a mechanism for generating and trading credits to offset carbon deficits and supports clean energy and accessible transportation projects in disadvantaged communities. The standard does not apply to aviation, railroad locomotives, military vehicles, or interstate waterborne vessels, though providers of these fuels can voluntarily generate credits.
