GEVO CEO: Agriculture Key to America’s Energy Future

At the Midwest Ag Summit in West Fargo, GEVO President and CEO Chris Ryan emphasized the vital role agriculture plays in shaping America’s energy future. Ryan highlighted strong local support in North Dakota for developing new fuels from agriculture. “When you come to North Dakota and say you want to make a new fuel out of agriculture, you’ve got farmer support, you’ve got business leaders support, you’ve got government support, and this is a way that we can diversify our energy supply.” Ryan also discussed GEVO’s recent purchase of the ethanol plant in Richardton, North Dakota, and a partnership with Summit Carbon Solutions to inject CO2 into a major pipeline, a move aimed at sequestering carbon and advancing sustainable ethanol production.
