Aemetis gets permits for mechanical vapor recompression at Keyes ethanol plant

In California, Aemetis, Inc. says the Authority To Construct air permits have been issued by the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District for the mechanical vapor recompression (MVR) energy efficiency project at the Aemetis 65 million gallon per year ethanol plant in Keyes, California.

The MVR project is expected to increase cash flow from operations at the Keyes ethanol plant by $32 million per year after the completion of construction in mid-2026 from energy cost reductions, increased income from Low Carbon Fuel Standard credits, and an increase in transferable Section 45Z tax credits.
