West Virginia ranks #41 nationally in corn production—Iowa produces 918 times more corn. The mountainous terrain limits agriculture and complicates fuel distribution. State code explicitly prohibits political subdivisions from offering incentives for alternative fuel production.
West Virginia's policy environment discourages ethanol development. Alternative fuels face a $0.205/gallon excise tax plus a variable component. No positive incentives exist for E85 retailers or consumers.

Check your West Virginia vehicle for a yellow fuel cap, a "Flex Fuel" badge, an E85 sticker inside the fuel door, or confirm via the owner's manual or VIN decoder. Using E85 in a non-FFV can damage fuel lines, injectors, and seals — see our full FFV identification guide.
