Die untenstehende Meldung ist eine Original-Meldung des Unternehmens. Sie ist nicht von der ECOreporter.de-Redaktion bearbeitet. Die presserechtliche Verantwortlichkeit liegt bei dem meldenden Unternehmen.

Green Plains Renewable Energy, Inc. commenced operations at its recently-acquired ethanol plant in Central City, Nebraska on July 29, 2009. Green Plains anticipates production of ethanol by August 2nd.

"The Central City plant is on-line and operational after we made some necessary repairs and capital improvements to the plant," said Todd Becker, Green Plains' President and Chief Executive Officer. "The improvements will allow us to operate more efficiently, producing 100 million gallons of ethanol annually. The Central City plant has been idle since November 2008 and, again, our team's knowledge of the process technology and execution of our start-up plan allowed us to quickly put this plant back into production after completing the acquisition."
