## Summary

**Expands federal support for advanced biorefineries and biobased manufacturing.** This bill would broaden what projects qualify, add a competitive grants program alongside loan guarantees, let the Secretary waive feasibility studies for proven technologies, and create a dedicated funding line to speed pilot and commercial deployment. - Farmers and rural communities: Projects that score for rural economic development and collaboration with producer associations could bring more local processing and jobs to farm areas. - Developers and manufacturers: Eligible developers could get year-round loan guarantees when funds allow and competitive grants for pilot or demonstration plants. Grants may cover up to 60% of project costs and material can count for up to 30% of the non‑Federal match. - Energy markets and program design: The measure expands eligible outputs to include advanced biofuels (including ultra‑low‑carbon and zero‑carbon bioethanol), renewable chemicals, and biobased products, and sets detailed scoring priorities for market potential, environmental and public health impacts, and scalability. It also adds a $40.0 million annual funding line for 2025–2029 to support grants and guarantees. *Would increase federal spending by $40.0 million each year from 2025 through 2029 to fund competitive grants and loan guarantees.*
