2007Feb28: The Abengoa Bioenergy Biomass of Kansas, LLC of Chesterfield, Missouri, will receive up to $76 million from the US Department of Energy to support the construction of an ethanol plant in Kansas. From the DOE news release, “The plant is expected to produce 11.4 million gallons of ethanol annually and enough energy to power the facility, with any excess energy being used to power the adjacent corn dry grind mill. The plant will use 700 tons per day of corn stover, wheat straw, milo stubble, switchgrass, and other feedstocks. Abengoa Bioenergy Biomass investors/participants include: Abengoa Bioenergy R&D, Inc.; Abengoa Engineering and Construction, LLC; Antares Corp.; and Taylor Engineering.”
