Empire State's Emerging E85 Network

New York offers 80 E85 stations, making it a moderate E85 market for such a large population state. Coverage concentrates heavily on Long Island and the Hudson Valley, with western New York near Buffalo providing secondary access.

Why E85 in New York

New York hosts the Northeast's only large-scale ethanol plant: Western New York Energy (WNYE) in Medina. This 60-million-gallon-per-year facility benefits from low-carbon hydroelectric power from Niagara Falls and recently celebrated its one-billion-gallon production milestone.

Ethanol Production

WNYE in Medina purchases 20 million bushels of corn annually and has produced over 1 billion gallons since opening in 2007.

State Incentives

New York provides a $0.15/gallon tax credit for in-state ethanol production and offers E85 sales tax exemption. The Alternative Fuel Infrastructure Tax Credit covers 50% of infrastructure costs. NYSERDA's 2025 plan allocates $24.5 million over three years for low-carbon alternative fuels.

Where to Find E85

Long Island has the strongest coverage with stations in Baldwin, Commack, Massapequa, Huntington, and Farmingdale. The Hudson Valley including Newburgh, Fishkill, and Croton-on-Hudson offers good options. The Albany Capital District has 3 stations. Buffalo area coverage includes Cheektowaga, Clarence, and Lancaster.

Coverage Gaps

New York City's five boroughs have minimal E85 access. The Adirondacks have zero coverage. Syracuse and Central New York are poorly served. The I-90 Thruway between Albany and Buffalo offers limited E85 options.

Pricing Context

State contract pricing shows E85 at approximately $2.00/gallon versus regular at $2.36-$2.46/gallon, creating roughly a 15-18% discount.

Practical Tips

Western New York residents should consider Pennsylvania's 222 stations for easy access. Long Island drivers have the best in-state experience. If traveling the Thruway, top off in Albany or Buffalo.
