The U.S. Grains Council, in partnership with Iowa Corn, escorted a group of Vietnamese government officials and fuel industry professionals on a tour of the U.S. ethanol value during June to support the country’s growing demand for fuel ethanol
Increased use of lower-carbon liquid fuels in light-duty vehicles would lead to larger and faster reductions in GHG emissions than EPA’s recently finalized EV-forcing tailpipe emissions standards, according to a new study.
The USDA recently released its Grain Crushings and Co-Products Production report for June, reporting that corn use for fuel ethanol production in April was up slightly when compared to the same month of last year.
Production and use of renewable ethanol from ePURE members and other EU producers reduced greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions by an average of 79.1% compared to fossil fuels in 2023, according to newly certified data.
U.S. fuel ethanol production expanded by more than 3% the week ending June 14, according to data released by the U.S. Energy Information Administration on June 20. Ethanol stocks were up nearly 2% and exports were down 39%.
