Gevo is commercializing the next generation of renewable gasoline, jet fuel, and diesel fuel with the potential to change the energy equation, leveraging the strength of America’s Heartland and powering rural economies through renewable alternatives.
Gevo’s primary market focus, given recent demand and growing customer interest, has been commercializing and scaling our proven alcohol-to-jet (ATJ) pathway to make renewable aviation fuel. We also have commercial opportunities for other renewable hydrocarbon products, such as renewable natural gas (“RNG”), hydrocarbons for gasoline blendstocks and diesel fuel, and plastics, materials, and other chemicals. At the core of Gevo, we are a development and commercialization company. We are engaged in technology, process, and intellectual property development targeted to large-scale deployment of renewable hydrocarbon fuels and chemicals. We are developing the marketplace and customers for our aviation fuel and other related products. We also are engaged as a developer and enabler/licensor for large-scale commercial production, and we expect to be a co-investor on certain projects.
Gevo uses renewable-resource-based carbohydrates as raw materials and is in an advanced state of developing renewable electricity and renewable natural gas for use in production processes, resulting in drop-in fuels that are produced efficiently and meet or exceed all industry standards.
Gevo’s products perform as well or better than traditional fossil-based fuels in infrastructure and engines. In addition to addressing the problems of fuels, Gevo’s technology also enables certain plastics, such as polyester, to be made with more renewable ingredients. Gevo’s ability to penetrate growing areas of the fuels market depends on the price of oil and the value of other attributes of our drop-in fuels.
Gevo believes that its proven, patented technology enabling us to produce price-competitive low carbon products such as gasoline components, jet fuel, and diesel fuel yields the potential to generate project and corporate returns that justify the build-out of a multi-billion dollar business.
Carbon Abatement Is Core to Our Business
Gevo’s fuel-manufacturing systems are designed end-to-end to abate carbon — the result is that we can manufacture cost-competitive renewable liquid fuels while abating carbon.
Gevo’s market-driven “pay for performance” approach regarding carbon and other sustainability attributes helps ensure value is delivered to our local economy. Through its Verity subsidiary, Gevo provides transparency, accountability, and efficiency in tracking, measuring, and verifying various attributes throughout the supply chain.
Verity Holdings, LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Gevo dedicated to providing full-service carbon project development through its proprietary digital Measure, Report, and Verify (MRV) platform, powered by distributed ledger technology. Verity tracks environmental attributes from feedstock to end product — from field-level carbon intensity scores for corn to process and production scores attributed to every gallon of fuel — giving customers audit-ready documentation of the carbon performance embedded in every gallon. In 2026, Verity partnered with CIBO Technologies to deliver an end-to-end data and verification solution linking farm practices to fuel production for Section 45Z Clean Fuel Production Credit compliance, with Verity serving as the compliance-grade system of record.
Carbon Capture and Sequestration
Gevo North Dakota, our ethanol production facility in Richardton, North Dakota, operates an ethanol plant with an adjacent CCS facility — one of a select few ethanol plants in the U.S. expected to maximize value from carbon abatement, including under Section 45Z. With its efficient operating profile and CCS, the facility is projected to achieve a carbon intensity score in the low 20s using the GREET model variation proposed in the Section 45Z rule — approximately 30 CI points lower than the best plants not connected to CCS. British Columbia has previously scored the facility at a CI of 19.
The facility holds pore space lease agreements for 5,800 acres in the Broom Creek geological formation, with capacity sufficient for up to 1 million metric tons of CO₂ sequestration annually — with the CO₂ stored permanently for 1,000-plus years. The CCS well currently sequesters approximately 180,000 metric tons of carbon annually, with expansion potential of more than five times current operations utilizing available pore space and wellhead capacity. Since CCS operations began in June 2022, Gevo North Dakota has issued more than 500,000 engineered CO₂ Removal Certificates (CORCs), certified by Puro.earth — making it the largest producer of engineered carbon removal credits of this kind in the United States.
Carbon abatement for fuels and chemicals is core to our business, and we are ready for the developing market for sequestered carbon.
