American ethanol exports experienced a remarkable surge in December, concluding what industry officials are calling an exceptionally successful year for the renewable fuel sector.
According to data from the Renewable Fuels Association, the nation shipped 220.3 million gallons of ethanol overseas during December, representing a 4% increase compared to November’s figures. This December total ranks as the second-highest monthly export volume in the industry’s history.
The strong December performance helped drive annual export numbers to 2.18 billion gallons for 2024, breaking previous records for yearly ethanol shipments from the United States.
