The following maps display planned and existing cellulosic ethanol biorefineries.

They do not include biorefineries that produce biodiesel or those that produce ethanol using alternative feedstocks.

Blue markers display operational biorefineries.

Yellow markers display biorefineries in development.

Red markers display biorefinery developments that have been suspended.

Click on a pinpoint on either map to learn information regarding individual sites. Each pinpoint states the site's name, location, feedstock, type and website link. You may zoom in and out of the maps by using the plus and minus symbols on the upper left hand corner of each.
