![2011 - 2023 Performance of the Low Carbon Fuel Standard](http://ww2.arb.ca.gov/sites/default/files/inline-images/Figure1_2023_1.jpg)
![Alternative Fuel Volumes and Credit Generation](http://ww2.arb.ca.gov/sites/default/files/inline-images/Figure2_2023.jpg)
This chart shows the total deficits (in red) and credits (blue) generated during each quarter. The green line tracks the total number of banked credits.
Regulated entities have consistently over-complied with the standard, generating a bank of credits which can be sold or retired to meet compliance obligations at any time. At the end of Q4 2023, the bank stood at nearly 23.6 million credits. 2022 Low Complexity/Low Energy Use Refining credits have been included. As the standard becomes more stringent in order to reach the targeted reductions by 2030, regulated entities can rely on these banked credits to ease compliance.

![2023 Volume Weighted Average Carbon Intensity by Fuel Type for Liquid Fuels](http://ww2.arb.ca.gov/sites/default/files/inline-images/Figure5a_2023_0.jpg)
Each sphere represents a certified fuel pathway; the size of the sphere represents the reported volume of the fuel in 2023, while its position on the horizontal axis indicates the carbon intensity of that fuel.
The alternative fuel’s CI value is divided by its Energy Economy Ratio (EER) in order to obtain the EER-adjusted CI value, representing the emissions which occur from the alternative fuel per MJ of conventional fuel displaced.

*This represents the percent of the total available credits (that could be used in the future to demonstrate compliance) that is held by a regulated party. Each position is calculated by looking at the total number of credits currently banked across all parties and dividing each party’s current credit bank by the total credit bank.
