E85 in Illinois: Frequently Asked Questions

Does Illinois still offer the E85 consumer rebate?

No. The Illinois Alternate Fuels Rebate Program, which historically paid E85 drivers up to $450 per year, has been suspended since 2016 and has received no new appropriations — it is listed among expired laws on the AFDC database. Current state incentives focus on electric vehicles through the CEJA EV Rebate Program rather than on flex fuel.

Is E85 taxed the same as regular gasoline in Illinois?

No. Under Public Act 102-700, E85 (51–83% ethanol) is exempt from the Illinois state sales and use tax through December 31, 2028. E15 receives a 10% exemption, and mid-range blends (E20–E50) a 20% exemption. After that date, all ethanol blends return to full sales-tax treatment — a meaningful future change FFV owners should watch.

Can I still get a federal tax credit for installing an E85 pump?

Only very briefly. The Section 30C Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit — worth up to $1,000 per item for individuals and up to $100,000 per item for businesses in eligible low-income or non-urban census tracts — was shortened by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (P.L. 119-21, July 2025). Qualifying property must now be placed in service by June 30, 2026, instead of the prior 2032 expiration. Many secondary sources still show the 2032 date; the IRS and AFDC are the authoritative references.
