The American Coalition for Ethanol (ACE) has opened registration and released the agenda for its 31st annual conference August 15-17 at the Renaissance Depot Hotel in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
This year’s “Grit Wins” conference theme and programming are reflective of the attacks oil refiners have launched on ethanol this year. The general session panels will include updates from ACE leadership, a discussion of attacks on the ethanol industry, an overview of future demand for liquid fuels, testimonials from flex fuel marketers, a technical update on fuel quality, and a presentation on whether exports can overcome escalating trade tensions and tariffs.
Breakout session topics include workforce management, coproduct diversification, low carbon fuel markets, tax reform, new technology, production efficiency, and more, as well as a brainstorming session on how to strengthen ethanol’s image in your community.
