Ethanol Giant Shifts To BioFuel

Posted By Lin on January 12, 2010

Fagen Inc, the company that has built more ethanol plants than any other company in the world, is changing focus. The Granite Falls company announced on January 3, 2009 that the company will now focus 60% on biomass, 25% on wind energy, and the remaining 15% on other types of industrial facilities.

Fagen is beginning construction this month of the largest biomass power plant in the US. The 100 megawatt plant will serve the Austin Texas area, using wood waste from wood processing plants as a fuel source instead of coal.
