US drive to make green jet fuel with ethanol stalled by CO2 pipeline foes

Read the full story from Reuters.

The U.S. drive to develop sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) using ethanol could be slowed because of growing opposition to proposed pipelines that would curb greenhouse gas emissions from ethanol plants by capturing carbon dioxide and carrying it away to other states for storage.

Ethanol industry players say the developments raise questions about future growth for U.S. producers of the biofuel, including POET, Valero (VLO.N) and others, who have been banking on proposed carbon capture and storage (CCS) pipeline projects across the heartland.
