The Renewable Fuels Association today welcomed Navigator CO2&nbsp;Ventures as an associate member.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.navigatorco2.com/" target="_blank">Navigator CO2&nbsp;Ventures</a>&nbsp;provides comprehensive carbon capture services, including product gathering, transportation and sequestration.
The company&rsquo;s Heartland Greenway project is an industrial-scale carbon capture system spanning Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, and South Dakota, that will provide biorefineries and other industrial participants a long-term, economic path to materially reduce their carbon footprint by capturing and transporting CO2&nbsp;through 1,200 miles of pipe to a permanent sequestration site.
&ldquo;Carbon capture, utilization, and sequestration is an important part of the industry&rsquo;s strategy for ensuring ethanol reaches net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 or sooner,&rdquo; said RFA President and CEO Geoff Cooper. &ldquo;Innovators like Navigator CO2&nbsp;Ventures will play a crucial role in helping ethanol producers continue to shrink their carbon footprint, and the company&rsquo;s expertise will be a welcome addition to our family of members. We look forward to having them at the table with us.&rdquo;
&ldquo;As an Iowa farm girl myself, I&rsquo;m proud to be part of a project that will help provide longevity for ethanol facilities and value-added ag processors in our rural communities across the Midwest,&rdquo; said Elizabeth Burns-Thompson, Vice-President of Government and Public Affairs for Navigator CO2. &ldquo;We know that successful industries are built off strong partnerships, which is why we are proud to be joining the RFA in support of their efforts to ensure the long-term growth of low-carbon renewable fuels.&rdquo;
