About ACE

AMERICAN COALITION FOR ETHANOL

Ethanol’s Here and Now

The American Coalition of Ethanol (ACE) leads the clean-fuel present for a low-carbon future.  We spark collaboration between producers and technology innovators. We build bridges between rural communities and policymakers, between farmers and environmentalists, between retailers and drivers. In other words, we promote understanding and alliances that create opportunities for all Americans. 

It’s a call we’ve answered longer than anyone in renewable fuel. And though we’re proud of our 35+ year record of achievement, we say the most exciting time to be part of this industry is right now.

ACE is a home where ethanol producers join with farmers, consumers, researchers, technology firms, Main Street businesses, automotive companies, cellulosic biofuel leaders, investors, rural electric cooperatives, and businesses that supply and benefit from the ethanol industry.

There’s a place for you here, too.
