This app locates gas stations in Minnesota that sell biofuels. You can search by type of biofuel: E15, E85 and blends. You can also search all stations. The Navigate button under each station listing opens the Map app with directions to that station.

Biofuels in transportation fuel is either ethanol blended with gasoline or soybean-based biodiesel blended with petroleum-based diesel. Almost all gasoline sold in the United States contains 10% ethanol (E10) while fuels with higher blends of ethanol such as E15 and E85 are also available.

Minnesota currently leads the nation in E85 stations and has one of the highest number of E15 stations. In fact, Minnesota is the fifth largest producer of ethanol in the nation and introduced ethanol into the transportation fuel as early as 1997, eight years before the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) was enacted and 10 years before the Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) was passed by Congress.
