Anytime there is an incident like this, people wonder if gas prices will skyrocket. Hi, eric. Reporter as we know, they already spiked once. What we are worried about is if there would be another spike because of ethanol. Its not what completely powers your car. Its part of a blend, an additive that helps your car run cleaner. And, is it going to cost more to have that in your car . When you fill up at the pump, most of what goes into your tank is gas line, but not all. Its actually a blend with a shot of grain alcohol. It helps reduce some of the local pollutants that come out of your tailpipe and reduces our use of oil. Reporter its called ethanol, typically produced by fermenting corn or soybeans but can be made from algae or forest waste. It is 90 gasoline. Reporter california produces a little ethanol. It helps regular gas burn cleaner. Its a biofuel but not used in the same way as the hundreds of thousands of gallons of ethanol at new star were going to be blended with g gasoline for sale. With gas prices already topping 4 a gallon, drivers have to be asking themselves if it will drive prices higher. This is probably 10 or less of one days usage. It shouldnt have much effect on the price of gasoline at all. Reporter but like any good economist, he says there is one instance, one occurrence that could make prices go up linked to the fire at new star, and that is if the fuel Storage Facility facility is down for several weeks. That could mean we pay more at the pump. Eric thomas, abc 7 news. Stay town daup to date with and abc 7 news. Com.
