The Next Generation Fuels Act of 2023, also known as Bill 118 hr 2434, is a piece of legislation currently being considered by the US Congress. The main goal of this bill is to promote the development and use of advanced biofuels in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote energy independence.

These targets would increase over time, with the goal of reaching a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from transportation fuels by 2030.

In addition, the bill includes measures to support research and development of new biofuel technologies, as well as incentives for the production and use of advanced biofuels. This includes tax credits for biofuel producers and grants for the installation of biofuel infrastructure. Overall, the Next Generation Fuels Act of 2023 aims to promote the use of cleaner, more sustainable fuels in order to combat climate change and reduce the nation's dependence on fossil fuels. It is currently being debated in Congress, with supporters arguing that it will help create jobs, reduce emissions, and strengthen national security.
