On November 3, 2009, POET held a field demonstration of biomass harvesting equipment with more than a dozen agricultural equipment manufacturers in Emmetsburg, Iowa. The cobs being harvested around Emmetsburg will be processed into cellulosic ethanol at Project LIBERTY, POET's first commercial scale cellulosic ethanol production facility co-located with their starch ethanol plant in Emmetsburg. That plant is expected to start up in late 2011. For more information, go to http://www.projectliberty.com.
On August 16, 2007, POET held a ground breaking ceremony for POET Biorefining - Fostoria, a 65 mgpy ethanol production facility in Fostoria, Ohio. This playlist is of several speakers at that event.
