Red Trail Energy, an ethanol plant on a North Dakota carbon capture site, is one step closer to being purchased by biofuel company Gevo following a vote by its equity holders approving the transaction.
Ethanol plant operators are heavily funding a campaign to protect a new South Dakota law they believe will ease the construction of a carbon dioxide pipeline across the state.
The goal of turning corn ethanol into sustainable aviation fuel is a little closer with the announcement that Gevo has secured a conditional, $1.46 billion loan guarantee from the Department of Energy. It’s the department’s first such commitment for an alcohol-to-jet fuel facility.
Biofuel company Gevo is aiming to bolster its network for low-carbon sustainable aviation fuel feedstocks through the $210 million purchase of an ethanol plant located on a North Dakota carbon capture site.
In this opinion piece, Gevo's Vice President of Government Relations Lindsay Fitzgerald advocates for measuring carbon intensity across all transportation fuel types in order to cut down on greenhouse gases, from the ground to the vehicle.
