Transportation fuels are the major component of our energy portfolio. Of the 20 million barrels of petroleum consumed each day in the United States, 68% is used in the transportation sector. The Western states are in position to become key producers and beneficiaries in the emerging alternative-fuels economy. Western states have abundant resources that have great potential as domestic sources for transportation fuels. In 2008, the Western Governors adopted this report and passed a resolution reaffirming their commitment to developing and diversifying the region's transportation fuels portfolio.
