Carbon & Sustainability

Marquis Energy is committed to sustainability and has audited farming production and transportation of ethanol since 2011. As the world works together toward carbon neutrality, Marquis Energy launched the Marquis Energy Carbon Sequestration Project which is centered around a process called BECCS. Today 88% of the embedded carbon in chemicals comes from petroleum-based feedstocks. To truly achieve a de-fossilized economy, the demand must be met by renewable carbon sources. Marquis Energy produces 350 million gallons per year of renewable bioethanol and 50 million gallons of industrial grade/USP alcohol. In 2024, Marquis Energy will capture and sequester 1.2 million tons of 99% pure fermentation carbon dioxide from the ethanol production process. This ethanol will have a third-party certified Carbon Intensity (CI) score of less than 15 in Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) modeling, an 84% reduction from petroleum-based products. Some of our gallons, made from the most sustainable feedstocks, will be net negative. As a leader in innovation, in 2025, Marquis Energy will be producing ethanol from CO2, creating a further net negative commodity.
