POET, LLC

COMPANY AT A GLANCE

For more than two decades, POET has defined the art of biorefining. We have grown from a single, humble refinery in Scotland, South Dakota, to one of the world’s largest producers of ethanol and other biorefined products.

With products like our Dakota Gold distillers grains, Voila™ corn oil and INVIZ™ zein, we are using that same innovative spirit to develop natural, renewable food sources and alternatives to petrochemicals.

We have an integrated business model that combines technology development with expertise in construction, operations, risk management and marketing.

Our engineers and scientists have developed technology and processes through rigorous testing at POET’s laboratories and pilot-scale plant.

While the scope of our vision has grown, we remain focused on reducing the reliance of the United States on foreign energy, to revitalizing global agriculture, and providing a cleaner, affordable alternative to fossil fuels.

 At POET, we believe in creativity from common sense. We believe the solution to our nation's growing energy crises is not some far-flung work of science fiction. It's the domestic energy we're producing today. The people of POET are currently replacing millions of barrels of imported oil every year with clean, renewable energy. All while pumping billions of dollars back into the American economy. 

In our two decades on the job, POET has developed an unmatched record in technology, reliability and efficiency. That's a legacy we intend to pass on. And every day we keep building on it. Today, we have a network of 27 plants in seven states and produce more than 1.6 billion gallons of ethanol annually. 

More important than volume is the efficiency with which we produce our products. POET provides turnkey development, design, engineering, construction, management and marketing services for our plant network. Our facilities are the most successful and profitable in the industry. 

Our technologies were developed and refined through years of hard work and collaboration with leaders in biochemistry and animal nutrition. As a result, we reap more value from a bushel of corn than anyone.

In addition to ethanol, we've perfected the leading brand of premium dried distillers grains with solubles on the market, Dakota Gold®.
