Valero Joins Summit COQ2 Ethanol Pipeline Plan
Valero, the world's second-largest ethanol producer with five Iowa plants, will connect to Summit Carbon Solutions' COQ2 pipeline. Eight Valero facilities in Iowa Nebraska Minnesota and South Dakota could join if regulators approve the 2400 mile project which aims to capture 3.1 million metric tons of CO2 annually and transport it to North Dakota for sequestration. The initiative costs over 5 billion dollars with possible 18 billion in federal tax credits over 12 years and now includes 57 ethanol plants across the Upper Midwest. The Iowa Utilities Board is weighing a permit to build 680 miles of the route and grant easements using eminent domain while Summit seeks voluntary land leases for the route.
