Luverne Update
Gevo’s plant in Luverne, Minn., continued to operate under the Side-by-Side (SBS) operating mode, providing the capability of producing both isobutanol and ethanol simultaneously. Isobutanol batches were successfully run in the quarter, in order to prove out several process improvements, in addition to to support due diligence efforts by potential licensees. The projected economics of full-scale isobutanol production have been validated by third parties, with isobutanol EBITDA margins on an optimized basis estimated to be $0.50 to $1.00 per gallon.
Overall revenues at the plant were down for the first quarter of 2015, as contrast to the fourth quarter of 2014, due to a combination of 1) lower ethanol prices and 2) lower overall ethanol and isobutanol production. Gevo took advantage of weaker ethanol margins in the quarter to take the plant down for various maintenance initiatives, which resulted in an overall decrease in alcohol gallons produced in the quarter.
