BlueFire Ethanol to relocate
Energy leading US state California is perhaps not every ethanol producer’s choice.
BlueFire Ethanol planned to build its second cellulosic ethanol facility in the state, but development and licensing concerns, coupled with the challenging business climate in California caused company officials to petition the Department of Energy for a site change to Mississippi.
The producer has received approval and will now move to Mississippi.
It will allow BlueFire to utilise green and wood wastes available in the region as feedstock to produce approximately 18 million gallons of ethanol a year.
