9 Blender Pumps - What’s in it for you? More product choices for consumers on same footprint. Qualifies for partial federal infrastructure tax credit. Typically uses existing tanks and pipes – huge cost savings. Ethanol plants can sell direct – bypass terminal markup. Flexibility for future approval of mid-level ethanol blends. Pump paid for by sale of all products, not just E85. Faster inventory turnover, protection against market swings.
