Renewable Energy Growth Stalled

Karla Krabbenhoft, business development manager at Gevo, highlighted the company’s focus on renewable energy and the growing demand for low-carbon fuels during the North Dakota Farmers Union Evolution Ag Summit. “We’re a company that focuses on renewable energy, producing ethanol and renewable natural gas while looking to expand into sustainable aviation fuel.” However, uncertainty around the 45Z tax credit has stalled progress. “Everything is on hold until we figure out what the administration wants to do,” she explained. Despite the delays, Krabbenhoft emphasized that sustainability remains a priority. “Sustainable and regenerative agriculture isn’t going anywhere and adopting these practices is important for the future.”
