Farmer-owned agribusiness cooperative CHS Inc. is offering E15 through 19 additional fuel terminals, expanding access to higher ethanol-blend fuels beginning August 2021.

CHS currently offers E15 at 10 Nustar terminals and one CHS terminal. According to the company, E15 is expected to be offered at these additional Magellan terminals: Alexandria, Minnesota; Cheyenne, Wyoming; Columbia, Missouri; Des Moines, Iowa; Doniphan, Nebraska; Fargo, North Dakota; Grand Forks, North Dakota; Great Bend, Kansas; Mankato, Minnesota; Marshall, Minnesota; Mason City Iowa; Milford, Iowa; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Omaha, Nebraska; Rochester, Minnesota; Springfield, Missouri; Waterloo, Iowa. The fuel will also now be available through the Nustar terminal in Jamestown, North Dakota; as well as the CHS terminal in McPherson, Kansas.

The company is the only refiner to remove barriers for its retail brand locations by establishing a misfueling mitigation plan that is approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and establishing E15 as a qualifying grade of fuel, in order to make E15 more accessible.

"… expanding options for ethanol blended fuel is important for our Cenex brand retailers and our farmer-owners," says Akhtar Hussain, director of refined fuels marketing at CHS. "CHS has always been committed to offering ethanol blended flexible fuels throughout its network of 1,450 Cenex brand retail facilities. We continue to demonstrate this commitment by working with our terminal partners to offer higher ethanol blends in a broader geography across the Cenex retail network."
