Gevo produces sustainable aviation fuel, isobutanol, and renewable gasoline by converting renewable feedstocks like corn into hydrocarbons. Using its proprietary fermentation technology, the company transforms these feedstocks into isobutanol, which is then processed into "drop-in" fuels compatible with existing engines and infrastructure. Gevo distinguishes itself by managing the entire value chain from farm to fuel and by licensing its specific chemical processes to third parties. The company's goal is to provide cost-competitive alternatives to petroleum that significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the global transportation sector.

Gevo has withdrawn its application for a $1.46 billion Department of Energy loan guarantee for a sustainable aviation fuel plant in Lake Preston, South Dakota. The biofuels maker walked away despite holding a conditional DOE commitment with an extension to 16 April 2026. The company cited a required link to enhanced oil recovery as not commercially viable, creating concerns for lenders who require proven revenue assumptions. Gevo now plans to pursue alternative funding sources whilst maintaining its goal to finance the plant by year-end 2026, leaving open the possibility of reapplying later. The withdrawal highlights broader challenges in scaling sustainable aviation fuel production, where projects require substantial long-term capital commitments. Gevo's alcohol-to-jet fuel project, ATJ-30 in North Dakota, remains on schedule.
Gevo, a renewable fuels and carbon management company, has appointed Joan Cetera as vice president of communications and public relations. The appointment supports the company's broader leadership transition. Cetera brings over 20 years of experience leading enterprise communications for publicly traded companies, with expertise in executive communications, reputational management and communications strategy during organisational change. At Gevo, she will oversee corporate communications and public relations, including internal communications, media engagement and external messaging. Gevo develops and operates facilities producing sustainable aviation fuel, motor fuels and chemicals. The company owns an ethanol plant with carbon capture facilities, a large dairy-based renewable natural gas facility, and operates the world's first production facility for specialty alcohol-to-jet fuels.
Gevo announces major ethanol expansion project at North Dakota (U.S.) facility. 3/31/2026 12:00:00 PM Gevo, Inc. announced that it is developing plans for a potential expansion at the site of its Gevo North Dakota facility (GND) in Richardton, North Dakota by adding a second ethanol production facility with targeted production capacity of up to 75 million gallons per year (MMgpy) of low-carbon ethanol. "As we pursue strategic opportunities for accretive growth, the expansion of production at Gevo North Dakota is at the top of our list," said Paul Bloom, President of Gevo. "We believe GND is one of the best sites in the U.S., in a pro-agriculture and pro-energy state and with local farmers who continue to increase productivity year after year. We already have the core elements in place in North Dakota, including proven carbon capture and sequestration infrastructure and access to pore space. By building on the engineering and development work we started for another project, we believe that with this expansion we can efficiently deploy capital, reduce risk, and expand our carbon business while producing clean, low-carbon fuels and coproducts." Earlier this year, Gevo announced plans for incremental expansion of the GND ethanol facility from 67 MMgpy to 75 MMgpy over the next year. The integrated system at GND combines ethanol production, CO[2] capture, and permanent sequestration, which enables Gevo to monetize its carbon in voluntary carbon markets and low-carbon fuel markets, generating meaningful revenue by producing energy with reduced lifecycle carbon intensity, including cost-effective alcohol-to-jet (ATJ) pathways to scale production of synthetic aviation fuel (SAF). Combining today's announcement of potential additional capacity and the previously announced incremental expansion project, the GND site would be expected to produce approximately 150 MMgpy of low-carbon ethanol, more than 400,000 metric tons of captured CO[2], and additional animal feed and corn oil. The biogenic, clean CO[2] supports the company's growing carbon business, including increased low-carbon fuel and the growing voluntary carbon dioxide credit markets. Carbon dioxide is an important coproduct that can be efficiently captured and utilized for industrial applications, including enhanced oil recovery, or permanently sequestered for carbon-removal credits. This opportunity represents a compelling combination of location, resources, and strategic alignment with the company's long-term growth objectives. "We anticipate this project will continue to solidify Gevo's leadership position to supply the growing demand for low-carbon ethanol, both domestically and internationally, while building the foundation for future, large-scale SAF opportunities," Bloom added. "The level of interest we've received from multiple potential financiers underscores the strategic value and confidence in our expansion plans at Gevo North Dakota. We are evaluating these accretive opportunities to ensure we deliver sustainable growth and long-term value for our shareholders." Gevo will continue collaborating with state, county, and local stakeholders as it advances its expansion plans and evaluates this opportunity alongside other strategic initiatives. With the recently reaffirmed priorities of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Renewable Fuel Standard, the company is well positioned to support American farmers, strengthen rural economies, and contribute to U.S. energy dominance and independence.
Gevo: Verity and CIBO partner to deliver end-to-end 45Z compliance solution for biofuel producers. The combined technology and expertise of Verity and CIBO are expected to connect farm-level data to fuel production, enabling auditable carbon intensity calculations and streamlined compliance with emerging clean fuel programs. ENGLEWOOD, Colo. and MINNEAPOLIS, March 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Verity Holdings, LLC ("Verity"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Gevo, Inc. (NASDAQ: GEVO), and CIBO Technologies, Inc. ("CIBO"), a leading data and analytics platform for agriculture, today announced a strategic partnership to deliver an end-to-end data and verification solution connecting farm-level practices to fuel production. The collaboration is designed to enable biofuel producers to generate verified carbon intensity ("CI") scores and audit-ready documentation that is required to capture value under Section 45Z of the United States Internal Revenue Code, known as the Clean Fuel Production Credit. As clean fuel markets evolve, biofuel producers must increasingly demonstrate traceable, auditable connections from feedstock sourcing through fuel production to be able to utilize credits such as the 45Z tax credit. Because of the value of the 45Z credit scales with verified reductions in CI, producers need systems capable of linking real-world agricultural practices with fuel production data and regulatory reporting. Biofuels typically participate in multiple markets and credit programs, each with different compliance and reporting requirements. These include the Section 45Z credit, Canada's Clean Fuel Regulations, California and other state Low Carbon Fuel Standards, and emerging voluntary carbon market registries. Together, Verity and CIBO aim to help the renewable fuel production supply chain (including ethanol producers, grain elevators, processors, and farmers) collect and convert verified farm-level and operational data into traceable environmental attributes that support participation in these markets. "By combining CIBO's independent, verified agricultural data, boots-on-the-ground farmer engagement, and streamlined program execution with Verity's operational and regulatory integrity, we can offer ethanol producers an end-to-end, trusted pathway to clean fuel credit markets," said Sunand Menon, Executive Chairman and CEO of CIBO Technologies. "Through CIBO's Trusted Advisor Network, which connects with growers across millions of acres in the United States, we help biofuel producers accelerate grower participation while supporting consistent measurement, reporting, and data integrity across the supply chain." "This partnership closes a critical gap for biofuel producers preparing for 45Z," said Kimberly Bowron, president at Verity. "Companies need more than analytics and estimated CI scores. They need a credible, auditable system that connects what actually happens in the field to what gets reported, verified, and monetized. Verity provides the compliance-grade system of record, and CIBO enables the field-level data and grower engagement to make that system work at scale." About CIBO CIBO Technologies uses science, data, and artificial intelligence to transform agriculture and deliver better outcomes for farmers, businesses, governments, and the environment. The company's proprietary agricultural technology platform provides datasets, analytics, and program management capabilities that support profitable and sustainable food and fuel systems while reducing reporting burdens on farmers and improving data integrity. Through its Trusted Advisor Network, which connects with growers across millions of acres in the United States, CIBO supports field-level data collection and grower participation aligned with regulatory and voluntary market requirements. Founded by Flagship Pioneering, CIBO's platform has been recognized by organizations including TIME and Fast Company.
