In Iowa, Poet says that between its cellulosic ethanol plant coming online as well as Abengoa’s and BP’s, commercial-scale production may ‘surge’ in 2013, opening the proverbial floodgates of the fuel whose use has been mandated since 2009 but was not available.

POET’s 25 million gallon Project Liberty is co-located with the company’s conventional ethanol producction plant in Emmetsburg, Iowa.
