Program description: The American Coalition for Ethanol (ACE) is the grassroots voice of the U.S. ethanol industry. ACE is a national, non-profit organization of nearly 600 members in 41 states, including farmers, commodity organizations, ethanol producers, businesses that supply goods and services to the ethanol industry, rural electric cooperatives, public power districts, and individuals supportive of increased production and use of ethanol.
ACE was formed in 1988 to coalesce a wide range of groups in support of ethanol. ACE unites agricultural producers, commodity and farm organizations, ethanol producers, rural electric cooperatives, businesses, and individuals.
ACE is organized to promote and expand the development of the ethanol industry, and:
* to reduce America’s dependence on foreign oil imports;
* to provide a value added alternative for our farm products;
* to create public awareness of the uses and benefits of ethanol, at the same time dispelling fears and erroneous product information;
* to support legislative efforts to promote ethanol usage and to do other things necessary or expedient for the promotion and increased usage of ethanol.
