The Department of Energy is looking at higher blends of ethanol, according to a report by Reuters

"We will be testing for E12, E15 and eventually E20 and working together with the Environment Protection Agency and others," said Alexander Karsner, assistant secretary for energy efficiency and renewable energy.

Higher blends will allow more ethanol to be used and will displace oil for transportation fuels.
