America's Smallest State, Zero E85 Stations

Rhode Island has zero public E85 stations—tied for last place nationally. At just 1,045 square miles, Rhode Island's FFV owners must cross state lines for E85.

Why E85 in Rhode Island

Rhode Island lacks every ingredient for E85 success: no ethanol production, no corn agriculture, smallest state in the nation, and distance from Midwest production. The state's energy policy focuses exclusively on electric vehicles and ZEVs.

State Incentives

Rhode Island has no E85 or ethanol incentives. State policy centers on Medium- and Heavy-Duty Zero Emission Vehicle Requirements, EV Time-Of-Use rates, and 100% installation cost coverage for EV charging. FFVs receive zero policy support.

Where to Find E85

There are no E85 stations in Rhode Island. Massachusetts offers 7 E85 stations, with the closest at Crossroads Convenience in Seekonk—approximately 5 miles from the Rhode Island border.

Coverage Gaps

The entire state is a coverage gap. Providence, Newport, Warwick—all E85-free.

Pricing Context

New England E85 pricing is the worst in the nation—recent data showed E85 actually more expensive than regular gasoline in the region due to low volumes and high transportation costs.

Practical Tips

Your only option is cross-border fueling. The Seekonk, MA station is approximately 15-20 minutes from Providence. Given Rhode Island's small size, no point in the state is more than 45 minutes from a Massachusetts E85 station.
