The availability of ethanol at retail service stations and fleet operations is improving throughout the country. This expansion is made possible by both installation of new equipment or the simple conversion of existing petroleum equipment. As the price of premium gasoline has approached record highs, its sales have dwindled. For many retailers, offering flex fuel ethanol options has become a more profitable option.

“We have really picked up a lot of business since the blender pump was installed. I’m pumping about 2,800 gallons of ethanol each week, and the margins on that are far better than regular gasoline. In addition, the blender who supplies my E85 splits his blender credit with me.” – Timothy Newton, Ohio
