In Indiana, Valero has purchased a corn ethanol plant in Mount Vernon, Ind. from Aventine Renewable Energy-Mt. Vernon. The Mount Vernon plant is the 11th corn ethanol plant in Valero Renewables’ system and its second in Indiana. With an annual capacity of 110 million gallons, the addition will give Valero more than 1.3 billion gallons per year in ethanol production. The plant has been shut down for approximately two years, but Valero Renewables plans to begin a restart program and resume production within the next several months.
