About
Marquis Energy operates the world’s largest dry-mill ethanol plant in Hennepin, Illinois, producing ~395 million gallons of ethanol plus DDGS and corn oil. Through its subsidiary Marquis Carbon Injection LLC, it is developing a BECCS project to sequester over 1 million tons/year of biogenic CO2 in the Mt. Simon formation beneath the site, with a draft EPA Class VI well permit issued in September 2025 and a final permit expected in February 2026.
