Marktkapitalisierung 340 Mio$ ist nicht wenig wenn man bedenkt dass die keinen Umsatz machen...

[smoke2000]

Cascade Investment investiert 84 Mio. Dollar, meiner Meinung wohl nicht ohne Grund. Dahinter steckt u.a. Bill Gates. Man kann von dem Mann halten was man will, aber was Geldangelegenheiten angeht, so hat Mister Gates ein goldenes Händchen. Dies ist keine Garantie auf Geldvermehrung, schadet aber wohl kaum

Zusätzlich suchen auch die Amerikaner nach alternativen Ressourcen, fangen sie doch so langsam an zu merken, dass Öl nicht auf ewig fliesst.

Weitere Informationen findet man auf der Webseite von Pacific Ethanol.

Ich nehme mal an, dass einige der Insiderverkäufe wohl darauf zurückzuführen sind, dass diese Leute ganz banal etwas Geld verdienen wollen. Ist in der Branche nicht unüblich.

GM in E85 Project Partnership in California

General Motors will join the state of California, Chevron Technology Ventures, and Pacific Ethanol in a project designed to learn more about consumer awareness and acceptance of E85 (an 85% ethanol blend) as a motor vehicle fuel. The partners announced their non-binding understanding today at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
GM intends to offer between 50 to 100 of its E85-capable Chevrolet Impala passenger cars and Silverado pickup trucks. Flexible-fuel vehicles will be used by the California Department of Transportation (CalTrans) at various operations in Northern California and the state’s Central Valley.
Chevron Technology Ventures intends to work with CalTrans to provide E85 fuel and install the necessary refueling pumps in these locations. Pacific Ethanol, a California-based ethanol production and marketing company, intends to provide the ethanol to Chevron Technology Ventures for the project.
Chevron is exploring a variety of energy sources, including ethanol. We expect this effort will help us learn more about consumer acceptance of E85 as well as issues surrounding its production and distribution.
—Greg Vesey, president, Chevron Technology Ventures
GM views the collaboration with the state of California as a step in helping create and grow an E85 refueling infrastructure for its E85-capable vehicles.
Pacific Ethanol is constructing a large-scale ethanol facility in Madera, California, and has plans to build four ethanol plants in the state during the next two years, according to Bill Jones, Pacific Ethanol’s Chairman.
For the 2006 model year, GM is offering nine E85 flexible fuel vehicles: the Chevrolet Tahoe, GMC Yukon and Yukon XL, Chevrolet Suburban, Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra, Chevrolet Avalanche, Chevrolet Impala, and the Chevrolet Monte Carlo.
In Europe, GM-owned Saab is making good headway with the E85-fueled Saab 9-5 BioPower, which is now available to consumers in Sweden and Germany. (Earlier post.) Saab is showing a 310-hp concept version of the 9-5 BioPower at the 2006 Los Angeles Auto Show to illustrate how Saab might extend this initiative to the United States.

Interessanter Bericht, wenn auch nicht brandaktuell

State’s First Ethanol Plant Opens in Goshen
Pacific Ethanol announces purchase and possible expansion
Valley Voice Newspaper, August 18, 2005

Goshen - Another first for California - and for Tulare County - was ushered in with federal and
state dignitaries as Phoenix Bio Industries and Western Milling officially opened the state’s first
ethanol plant in Goshen Aug. 12. The plant, which was constructed on Western Milling’s property
just east of Highway 99 in Goshen, will produce 25 to 30 million gallons of ethanol a year and has
expansion capabilities in place to produce between 45 and 50 million gallons by next year.
“With this plant, we are showing that we are doing our best to take care of the environment and to
clean our Valley’s air,” said Rick Eastman, president of Phoenix Bio Industries.
Ethanol provides a clean-burning renewable fuel oxygenate and a renewable fuel that can reduce
reliance on imported oil, while increasing the domestic fuel supply. According to the Pew Center
for Global Climate Change, ethanol and other renewable fuels are the single most cost effective
solution to global warming in the near future. Ethanol reduces carbon dioxide, or CO2 emissions
by 30 percent compared to gasoline.
Rhys Roth, co-director of Climate Solutions, a Washington state-based environmental group
offering practical solutions to global warming, called the Tulare County ethanol plant a model for
the rest of the nation.
“This plant is a model for a pro-jobs, pro-agriculture, pro-environment solution,” Rhys said. “I feel
for too long we have shouted at each other…and no doubt we will continue to have
disagreements. But this proves that we have a golden opportunity to set aside our differences to
develop something good for our farmers, the environment and the community. The plant is a
renewable model we can carry into the future.”
Kevin Kruse, whose family started Western Milling and produces the Kruse Perfection brand of
feeds, described taking on the ethanol project.
“Two years ago we decided to join Phoenix Bio Industries in building an ethanol plant to help
meet California’s energy needs,” Kruse said. “It will also reduce our reliance on imported grains
from the Midwest.”
Ethanol’s by-product, wet distiller’s grain, provides a high protein feed for local dairy and cattle
farmers. Since distillers grain, which is the spent corn that gone through the distilling process, can
be fed wet to animals, this ethanol plant will be more energy efficient using one-third less natural
gas in the process. Other plants built in California also will use less gas and be more energy
efficient.
California’s Secretary of Agriculture, A.G. Kawamura, addressed the crowd, equating food
security with homeland security and calling the convergence “energy security.”
“This plant is proof that we can redevelop what agriculture can be in California today and for this
nation,” Kawamura said.
A featured speaker at the opening was federal Secretary of Agriculture Mike Johanns. Johanns
had visited Fresno earlier in the day for part six of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s scheduled
listening sessions concerning the 2007 Farm Bill. Johanns attended the ethanol plant opening
event at the invitation of Congressman Devin Nunes.
“This is a remarkable week when you think of it,” Johanns said. “On Monday [Aug. 8, 2005]
President Bush signed the energy bill into law, which had been in the works for more than four
years. This factory is a great example of what the new law will do to help meet our energy needs.”
The National Energy Bill increases ethanol use by mandating an estimated five to eight billion
gallons of ethanol and other renewable fuels be purchased by gasoline refiners by 2012.
Johanns also discussed additional benefits of the plant, including the creation of additional jobs,
and an increased property tax base that can generate at least $600,000 in new tax revenue for
state and local governments annually.
“Energy security is related to our economic security,” Johanns said. “I’d much rather see our
energy come from the farm fields of America than from the oil fields of the Middle East.”
Former Secretary of State Bill Jones also spoke at the event. Jones is the founder and chairman
of Pacific Ethanol, Inc., which announced the morning of the ribbon-cutting ceremony that it plans
to acquire Phoenix Bio Industries. The Goshen plant has been valued at $40 million in an SCE
filing by Pacific Ethanol.
Pacific Ethanol, Inc. became a publicly traded company in March. Its corporate mission is to
become the West Coast’s leading marketer and producer of renewable fuels.
Jones acknowledged that while Goshen plant’s production represents less than five percent of
the state’s ethanol demand, the Governor has the opportunity to make ethanol a viable part of life
for Californians.
“This plant is the largest refinery for fuel built in California in a generation,” Jones said. “The
governor has an opportunity to build the same kind of interest and enthusiasm we’ve seen here
today and with members of his cabinet here in attendance, I hope that message is carried to him.”
California’s Resources Secretary, Mike Chrisman, also attended the event.
While 19 states have banned the use of MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) as a fuel additive to
increase octane levels in gasoline, California still allows it. Higher octane levels provide cleaner
burning fuels that are more energy efficient.
California, likewise, requires a lesser percentage of ethanol in its fuel, under six percent,
compared to most other states, which require 10 percent.
Should California increase its ethanol requirement to 10 percent, the estimated ethanol market in
California alone would be 1.6 billion gallons, compared to about 900 million gallons today.
Pacific Ethanol’s SCE filing notes the following about ethanol:
“The market price of ethanol is volatile and subject to significant fluctuations, which may cause
our results of operations to fluctuate significantly. The market price of ethanol is somewhat
dependent on the price of gasoline, which is in turn dependent on the price of petroleum. We
cannot predict the future price of gasoline or oil and we may realize unprofitable prices for the
sale of ethanol due to significant fluctuations in market prices. For example, the price of ethanol
declined by approximately 25% from its 2004 average price per gallon in only three months from
January 2005 through March 2005 and has reversed this decline and increased to approximately
25% above its 2004 average price per gallon in only four months from April 2005 through July
2005.
Member of the Board of Supervisors Steve Worthley hailed the project’s economic impact locally -
virtually the first fuel refinery built in the state in a long time where we appear to be running short
on motor fuel every day. Asked if he was concerned about the pollution from trainloads of corn
coming into the state to make the fuel here, Worthley said it was a push since “trains are coming
now with corn to feed the cows” and now the corn will be used to make fuel and animal feed with
healthier nutrient content delivered nearby to the cows.
If Pacific Ethanol decides to expand their Goshen ethanol plant significantly it could change it’s
planned purchase of 100 acres across the freeway from the airport for a new ethanol plant - the
company has said would use cellulose waste material rather than feed corn as a feedstock to
make ethanol. The company has an option on the land, says the firm’s SCE filing. They continue
to work on submittal of planned EIR on the Visalia project although with the new acquisition there
is more uncertainty over the future of the Visalia Pacific Ethanol plant.

Ford to debut 1st ethanol hybrid
Escape won`t go into production
January 25, 2006
BY JUSTIN HYDE
FREE PRESS WASHINGTON BUREAU


Two days after pledging more fuel-efficient vehicles as part of a massive corporate restructuring, Ford Motor Co. is to unveil today an ethanol-powered hybrid test vehicle it says will point to ways to reduce dependence on foreign oil.

But the problem is that the flex-fuel Escape Hybrid being unveiled at the Washington Auto Show gets worse fuel economy and doesn`t meet the same emissions standards when it runs on ethanol instead of gasoline. These shortcomings highlight two of the challenges ethanol has to overcome before it can make an impact on U.S. energy consumption.

Ford said the Escape Hybrid research vehicle was the first to combine hybrid technology with the ability to burn a mixture of gasoline and up to 85% ethanol known as E85. The vehicle isn`t destined for production, but meant to explore ways to improve flexible-fuel engines.

The program also will tout Ford`s efforts to build 250,000 hybrids annually by the end of the decade and 250,000 vehicles this year that can run on E85.

"This is marrying two technologies that really offer the best of both worlds," Sue Cischke, Ford`s vice president of environmental and safety engineering, said Tuesday. "If you want to solve the energy problem, hybrids do that in the city and E85 does that on the highway."

Ethanol, which is typically made from corn in the United States, has long been touted as a way to reduce oil imports while boosting rural economies. It can be made from several types of plants and offers the promise of a renewable fuel that moderates greenhouse gas emissions.

Nearly 90% of the ethanol made today is used as a gasoline additive to reduce smog in urban areas, and ethanol proponents say fuels with more ethanol could cut oil imports.

But ethanol has several drawbacks:


A gallon of ethanol holds less energy than a gallon of gasoline, making mileage worse. Cischke said the Escape Hybrid E85 has about a 25% reduction in fuel economy on E85 than on regular gasoline blends.


Ethanol also can evaporate at lower temperatures than gasoline, which means the Escape Hybrid E85 doesn`t meet the "partial zero emissions vehicle" standard that the regular version does.

"We do have some hurdles we have to solve," Cischke said. "But they`re not unsolvable."

Ford, General Motors Corp. and DaimlerChrysler AG all have sold E85-capable vehicles in recent years and have said they would expand their offerings. But environmental groups contend the real driver has been a federal fuel-economy credit for flex-fuel vehicles, which the automakers receive regardless of whether the vehicles ever actually run on E85.

Of about 170,000 U.S. gas stations, only about 500 sell E85, according to the National Ethanol Vehicle Coalition, which promotes ethanol use. While the coalition expects that number will rise to about 2,500 by the end of the year, government experts estimate that supplies of E85 will remain tiny -- less than 1% of the gasoline burned annually in cars and trucks -- for years to come.

"The Big Three`s enthusiasm about E85 has nothing to do with environmental improvement because the vast majority of vehicles will never see a drop of the stuff," said Dan Becker, the Sierra Club`s director of global warming research.

Wegen George W. Er will mehr Alkohol - im Ernst !

Mr. Bush: ....

I was pleased to see some talk about product lines being -- you know, focusing on flex fuel, for example. The idea of a car being able to use gasoline, hydrocarbon-base fuel and/or fuel, but coming out of -- whether it be corn or waste. And one of the things I`m going to talk about in the State of the Union is the need for this country to continue to promote technology in order for us to diversify away from hydrocarbon.

WSJ: The Brazil example.

Mr. Bush: Well, and I was very impressed down there about the fact that, first of all, a lot of the fuel being manufactured in Brazil is from sugar, and that GM-manufactured products are flex fuel products. There`s other technologies we can use, as well. And so as these automobile manufacturers compete for market share and use technology to try to get consumers to buy their product, they also will be helping America become less dependent on foreign sources of oil. So this is an interesting moment in the evolution of the automobile, and for these car companies trying to stay competitive.

Pacific Ethanol Stock Up Ahead of Speech
Tuesday January 31, 1:42 pm ET
Pacific Ethanol Shares Rise to New 52-Week High Ahead of State of the Union Address


NEW YORK (AP) -- Shares of Pacific Ethanol Inc. surged to a new 52-week high on Tuesday, ahead of President Bush`s State of the Union address, which is expected to include a statement of support for greater use of ethanol.
ADVERTISEMENT


In midday trading on the Nasdaq, shares of the Fresno, Calif. company jumped $3.14, or 24 percent, to $17.78, after earlier hitting a new 52-week high of $18.14. Shares were trading at more than eight times their average volume.

Over the past year, shares previously traded between $7.06 per share and $14.90 per share.

In his speech to Congress, Bush is expected to talk about alternative energy sources and tout his administration`s work in that field for the past five years. He`s also expected push for new technologies and more fuel from cleaner sources such as ethanol and hydrogen.

Ethanol is a fuel additive made from fermented corn that allows cars to run more cleanly.

In a note to clients, analyst Paul J. Resnik of JM Dutton Associates cited the expected mention of ethanol in Bush`s speech, along with increasing interest from American automakers and the news media as a catalyst for the stock, which added $2.41, or 20 percent, in Monday`s session.

Resnik also pointed to the lower-than-projected cost of corn, the primary input cost for ethanol, and continued progress of the construction of Pacific Ethanol`s plant in Madera, Calif., which is expected to be operational in the fourth quarter.

Separately, the company said it received commitment letters for up to $34 million in debt financing for the construction of the plant.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Traders cashed out of alternative energy stocks on Wednesday -- a day after shares surged in expectation that President Bush would outline a heavy-spending plan in his State of the Union address.

Bush gave investors what they wanted, promising a 22 percent increase in research funding for cleaner energies.

In his address Tuesday night, Bush introduced an "Advanced Energy Initiative." The program calls for $289 million in additional financing for hydrogen fuel, $281 million for clean coal technologies, $150 million for cellulose-based ethanol and $148 million for solar energy in the fiscal 2007 budget. The plan also earmarks a smaller amount for wind energy research and advanced automotive batteries.

"It`s a little bit of `buy on the rumor, sell on the news,`" said John Quealy, an analyst with investment bank Canaccord Adams. "Trading-oriented folks are taking profits."

Although Quealy advocates investors have some exposure to alternative energy stocks based on the industry`s growth prospects, he cautions against the risks. Many of the companies are young and unprofitable with stocks that tend toward volatility, he said.

A nascent company called Pacific Ethanol Inc. is somewhat emblematic of the sector.

Shares of Pacific Ethanol slid $2.44, or 12.9 percent, to $16.39 in afternoon trading on the Nasdaq, a day after the stock climbed to a 52-week high of $19.14. Trading volume surged to 3.3 million versus a daily average of about 337,000.

Pacific Ethanol doesn`t produce ethanol yet, however the company has plans to construct five corn-based ethanol production plants by 2008. Chief Executive Neil Koehler said he expects the company`s ethanol business to turn its first profit in the fourth quarter of 2006, when the first plant is scheduled to start operations.

When the five plants are running, Pacific Ethanol will have the capacity to churn out 200 million gallons of ethanol per year. The market currently produces some 4 billion gallons annually.

"The ethanol business is a very profitable business today, and we expect to see good margins with the initiation of our ethanol production," Koehler said.

Pacific Ethanol shares are up 51.5 percent since Jan. 1.

Elsewhere, Archer Daniels Midland Co., an oilseeds processor that has been ramping up its ethanol production, saw its shares shed $1.09, or 3.5 percent, to $30.41. The stock reached a fresh 52-week peak of $32.22 on Tuesday.

The proposed government investment doesn`t amount to much when scaled against the billions the government spends elsewhere. However, relative to what has been spent in the past, the funding is promising, Quealy said.

While $150 million is a drop in bucket for the government, "$150M focused specifically on solar materials is quite large," he said. "There was a little bit of investor anticipation and letdown in terms of magnitude of dollars. But take a step back, and it still is very positive."

In the solar sector, shares of Evergreen Solar Inc. dropped 43 cents, or 2.8 percent, to $15.00; shares of Sunpower Corp. fell 35 cents to $39.65 and shares of Energy Conversion Devices Inc. slipped 36 cents to $50 on the Nasdaq. All three stocks had climbed sharply over the past few days, with Evergreen and Sunpower hitting 52-week highs on Tuesday.

In the hydrogen fuel cell sector, shares Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide Inc. fell 29 cents, or 5.8 percent, to $4.71 on the Nasdaq.

Entry into Material Agreement, Financial Statements and Exhibits



ITEM 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.
(1) DEBT COMMITMENT LETTERS DATED JANUARY 26, 2006 BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND HUDSON UNITED BANK AND COMERICA BANK

On January 26, 2006, Pacific Ethanol, Inc. (the "Company") and its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, Pacific Ethanol Madera, LLC ("PEI Madera"), executed two debt commitment letters (the "Commitment Letters"), one with Hudson United Bank ("Hudson") and one with Comerica Bank ("Comerica"), for the commitment of debt financing from Hudson and Comerica (collectively, "Lender") in the aggregate amount of up to $34.0 million (the "Debt Financing").

The Debt Financing is to provide part of the financing necessary for the completion of the Company`s ethanol production facility in Madera County, California (the "Project"). The Project cost is not to exceed approximately $65.0 million (the "Project Cost"). The Project will be owned by PEI Madera, a special purpose limited liability company structured as a bankruptcy-remote entity.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Commitment Letters, Hudson has committed to fund up to $22.1 million and Comerica has committed to fund up to $11.9 million of the Debt Financing. The Debt Financing will be subject to acceptable documentation, including those related to representations, warranties, covenants, default provisions, etc., which are to be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, PEI Madera, the Company and their respective legal counsel. The closing of the Debt Financing is subject to numerous other conditions as discussed more fully below and in the Commitment Letters. The terms of the Debt Financing may differ materially from the terms described herein and set forth in the Commitment Letters.

The Company has contributed assets to PEI Madera having a value of approximately $10.0 million (the "Contributed Assets"). The Company is responsible for arranging cash equity (the "Contributed Amount") in an amount that, when combined with the Contributed Assets would be equal to no less than the difference between the Debt Financing amount of $34.0 million and the total Project Cost. The Contributed Amount is expected to be approximately $22.0 million. In the event that the Contributed Assets and the Contributed Amount are insufficient to cover the difference between the Project Cost and the Debt Financing, the Company will be required to provide additional proceeds to cover such difference.

The construction start date for the Project occurred in May 2005 and a final notice to proceed is to be issued by PEI Madera to W.M. Lyles Co., the contractor for the Project (the "Contractor"), upon the closing of the Construction Loan (as described below). Substantial completion of the Project is to occur within 425 days of the final notice to proceed. The final completion date of the Project is defined under the Commitment Letters as the date that the Project (a) has successfully been constructed and completed; (b) has passed all performance and acceptance tests reasonably acceptable to Lender and its engineer; and (c) Lender`s engineer has provided an acceptable completion certificate (the "Final Completion Date"). The Final Completion Date is to occur within 545 days from the notice to proceed.


-2-

CONSTRUCTION LOAN AND TERM LOAN
The Debt Financing will initially be in the form of a construction loan (the "Construction Loan") and will mature on or before the Final Completion Date, after which the Debt Financing will be converted to a term loan (the "Term Loan") that will mature on the seventh anniversary of the closing of the Term Loan. In the event that such conversion does not occur and PEI Madera elects to repay the Construction Loan, then PEI Madera is to pay a termination fee equal to 5.00% of the amount of the Construction Loan. The closing of the Term Loan is expected to be the Final Completion Date. The Construction Loan interest rate will float at a rate equal to the 30-day London Inter Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 4.00%. PEI Madera will be required to pay the Construction Loan interest monthly during the term of the Construction Loan. The Term Loan interest rate will float at a rate equal to the 90-day LIBOR rate plus 3.75%. PEI Madera will be required to purchase interest rate protection in the form of a LIBOR rate cap of no more than 5.00% from a provider on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to Lender, and in an amount covering no less than 70% of the principal outstanding on any loan payment date commencing on the closing date through the fifth anniversary of the Term Loan. Loan repayments on the Term Loan are to be due quarterly in arrears for a total of twenty-eight (28) payments beginning on the closing of the Term Loan and ending on its maturity date. The loan amortization for the Project will be established on the closing of the Term Loan based upon the operating cash projected to be available to PEI Madera from the Project as determined by closing pro forma projections. The Debt Financing will be the only indebtedness permitted on the Project. The Debt Financing will be senior to all obligations of the Project and PEI Madera other than direct Project operating expenses and expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business. All direct and out-of-pocket expenses of the Company or its direct and indirect subsidiaries will be reimbursed only after the repayment of the Debt Financing obligations.

The Term Loan amount is to be the lesser of (a) $34.0 million; (b) 52.25% of the Project Cost at the time of closing of the Term Loan; and (c) an amount equal to the present value of up to 43.67% (based upon a 2.29 to 1.00 debt service coverage ratio) of the operating cash distributable to and received by PEI Madera supported by the closing pro forma projections, from the closing of the Term Loan through the seventh anniversary of such closing, discounted at 9.50%. The Term Loan amount in the Commitment Letters is presently assumed to be $34.0 million based upon current pro forma assumptions.

The conditions precedent to the closing of the Construction Loan will include customary conditions precedent to construction loans as well as other conditions described herein, and, among other things, that no material adverse change in the condition or operation, financial or otherwise, of PEI Madera, the Company or the Project has occurred. In addition, PEI Madera currently has a loan outstanding from Lyles Diversified, Inc. ("LDI") in the approximate amount of $3.6 million, and as a condition precedent to the closing of the Construction Loan, PEI Madera is to repay the loan from LDI. Also, the Contractor will be required to submit a construction performance and completion bond from a bonding company acceptable to Lender prior to the closing of the Construction Loan that covers both Phase I and Phase II construction of the Project.

The conditions precedent to the closing of the Term Loan will include all of the conditions precedent to the closing of the Construction Loan and customary conditions precedent to term loans as well as other conditions described herein, and, among other things, that (a) no material adverse change


-3-
in the condition or operation, financial or otherwise, of PEI Madera, the Company or the Project has occurred; (b) there exists no default or event that upon notice or the passage of time would result in default under the Construction Loan agreements; and (c) delivery of Lender`s engineer`s completion certificate satisfactory to the Lender that states that the Project and related grain facility (i) are complete, (ii) have passed all acceptance tests, (iii) are available for commercial operation, (iv) the Project is capable of achieving the operational production levels at the operating cost as projected in the closing pro forma projections, and (v) all permits required to operate the Project and the related grain facility are in full force and effect.


CONSTRUCTION DRAW ACCOUNT
Following the closing, 100% of the Contributed Amount is to be funded into a construction draw account ("CDA"). Lender will have no obligation to provide any portion of the Debt Financing until the Contributed Amount has been provided in full and deposited into the CDA and fully drawn upon as certified by Lender`s engineer. Once the Contributed Amount is fully drawn upon, Lender is to, from time to time, fund the CDA with Debt Financing proceeds in an amount equal to PEI Madera`s draw request, subject to the draw schedule. As an additional condition to any funding by Lender of the CDA, an appraiser is to provide an independent appraisal of the grain facility related to the Project, the Phase I construction work completed to date and the Project as a whole, all as acceptable to Lender.

PEI Madera is to submit a Project construction and draw schedule that is reasonably acceptable to Lender and its engineer. Lender`s engineer will submit reports 90, 180 and 270 days subsequent to the closing of the Construction Loan certifying that the Project is currently on or ahead of the draw schedule and that there is no event or anticipated event that would cause the Project not to be completed by the Final Completion Date prior to any subsequent draws by PEI Madera and future fundings by Lender from and to the CDA. PEI Madera must also submit a monthly construction progress report to Lender. If Lender`s engineer reports that the Project is behind by at least 30 days, then PEI Madera will have 60 days to bring the Project`s construction schedule back in line with the draw schedule. PEI Madera`s failure to do so will constitute a default under the Debt Financing agreements. In addition, failure to achieve final completion prior to the Final Completion Date will constitute a default under the Debt Financing agreements.


USE OF PROCEEDS
The Debt Financing is to be used to finance a portion of qualified project construction expenses, as approved by PEI Madera and Lender`s engineer ("QPCEs"), not funded by the Contributed Amount. Beginning on the closing of the Construction Loan, and continuing for all future draws, PEI Madera will be permitted to withdraw monthly up to 100% of the QPCEs, including amounts necessary to pay interest, but only up to the amount held in the CDA, provided that no event of default has occurred and is continuing, and the withdrawal does not exceed the amount referenced in the draw schedule. On each draw subsequent to Lender`s funding of amounts into the CDA, the Lender will withdraw from the CDA the accrued interest on the Debt Financing.


-4-

DEBT SERVICE RESERVE ACCOUNT
Upon the closing of the Term Loan, PEI Madera is to fund a debt service reserve account ("DSRA") in an amount equal to the scheduled debt service payments that are projected to be due over the succeeding 6 months. On the first anniversary of the closing of the Term Loan, PEI Madera is to increase the funds in the DSRA to a total amount equal to the scheduled debt service payments projected to be due over the succeeding 12 months. Once funded, PEI Madera is to maintain funds in the DSRA in an amount equal to the required balance, such that subsequent to the closing of the Term Loan, if there is at any time a shortfall between the amount contained in the DSRA and the required balance, as provided above, then the amount of such shortfall is to be funded from 100% of operating cash after the payment of scheduled debt service payments. PEI Madera will be prohibited from making any distributions or any payment until the DSRA is fully funded up to the amount of the required balance. Calculations of any shortfall are to be made quarterly based on the scheduled debt service payments projected to be due over the succeeding 12 months. PEI Madera will only be required to fund the DSRA shortfall amounts in the first month after each quarterly calculation of the DSRA shortfall amount. At such time as the balance of the DSRA equals or exceeds the outstanding balance on the Term Loan, including any accrued interest, Lender is to apply such funds to repay the outstanding balance on the Term Loan and refund any balance to PEI Madera.


DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE RATIO
The minimum debt service coverage ratio is to be no less than 1.25 to
1.00. The debt service coverage ratio is defined as the preceding 12 months of operating cash securing the Term Loan (measured only after the Project has operated for at least 12 months) divided by the projected debt service payments for the succeeding 12 months. In the event that the debt service coverage ratio falls below the stated minimum, then all excess funds in the project revenue account (as described below) after the debt service payments on the Term Loan and the payment of operating expenses are to be deposited into the DSRA until such time as the DSRA has reached the required balance plus any additional required balance. The additional required balance on any payment date that the minimum coverage ratio is less than 1.50 to 1.00 is to be calculated as follows:
(a) an adjusted pro forma forecast, reasonably acceptable to Lender, would be created utilizing the methodology employed in the closing pro forma projections, which reflects the events that gave rise to the lower than anticipated net operating cash flow; and (b) an adjusted loan amortization would be calculated utilizing the cash flows forecasted in the adjusted pro forma forecast over the remaining life of the Term Loan assuming the original amortization period. The adjusted loan would then be discounted at the interest rate on the Term Loan and added together with the outstanding loan balance to produce the adjusted loan balance. The additional required balance is to be the excess of the outstanding Term Loan balance over the adjusted loan balance. At the option of PEI Madera, all amounts constituting the additional required balance may be used to prepay the Term Loan without penalty. All excess funds in the DSRA over any required balance, including any additional required balance, are to be released immediately to PEI Madera. The additional required balance would be released . . .

Portfolios call for ethanol
Commentary: Investing in ethanol may be less risky

By Kevin Kerr, MarketWatch
Last Update: 11:09 AM ET Feb. 3, 2006


NORWALK, Conn. (MarketWatch) -- All it took was the mention of the word ethanol in the State of the Union speech by President Bush the other night to light a fire under some key commodities and ethanol stocks.



In many ways, it laid out a crystal clear roadmap for investors of where the next big profits may be coming from -- and some may surprise you.

The ethanol and biofuels market today is somewhat of a tricky maze to the average investor and has been considered highly risky. What a difference a day makes. With the pronouncement by Mr. Bush of an ethanol cure for America`s oil addiction, the race to buy ethanol related stocks and commodities is on.

Now let`s be clear, many of the publicly traded ethanol companies are not well established and it`s hard to determine if they are a flash in the pan or they could be long term winners, nobody knows, and that`s true for any sector. One thing is clear, there are some that are now in a much better position as investors are gaining interest about the fuel additive.

Fill `er up with corn please

The real immediate beneficiaries in my opinion are two commodities, and we`re already seeing it today. Corn and Sugar.

The sugar market is simply exploding reaching over 19 cents today for the May futures contract, and it`s showing little signs of slowing.

Corn is another beneficiary as ethanol derived from corn is the most likely source for the U.S. because of abundance and relatively cheap cost. Corn climbed nearly 4 cents Thursday in the May contract. Long term prospects for sugar prices are going to be determined mainly by growing demand in South America for Ethanol.

South America is living proof it can work. For example Brazil has shown that ethanol -- thanks to its production of sugarcane based ethanol -- can provide the equivalent of 160,000 barrels of oil a day.

According to various reports Brazil will become energy independent this year. Some believe that if the U.S. eliminates its 54-cent tariff on Brazilian ethanol, the U.S. can and will in reality begin switching from oil to ethanol right away.

Many argue that ethanol costs more to make then the amount of energy it provides.

Maybe so, but if OPEC decides to suddenly cut production -- and they could at anytime -- suddenly ethanol might look pretty cheap no matter what it costs, especially if oil hits $100 a barrel.

The naysayers of ethanol and the commodities that make it, i.e. sugar and corn, are short sighted in my opinion. While it may not be a straight shot up for these markets, long term these commodities are moving higher. I am banking on it. And so are my portfolios. So far, they`re reaping the benefits of both low cost corn futures and under priced sugar futures. Only time will tell.

Taking stock in ethanol

For those that still have not capitulated and thumb their nose at commodities futures trading, there are a raft of equities related to ethanol. I suggest sticking with a few bigger names. For the more risk tolerant there are some better prospects than others, for various reasons.

Some names are familiar like Archer Daniels Midland (ADM:
Archer Daniels Midland Company)
.
.
.
.
Location, location, location

One that I like, and for disclosure purposes also own in my personal portfolio, is Pacific Ethanol (PEIX)
.
.
.
.
an ethanol refiner based in California. Out of the names I have just listed this is the only real 100% ethanol play . Many people know this stock because it got a nice chunk of capital, $84 million in fact, from Bill Gates. The company reports that it plans to expand, building up to five West Coast ethanol refineries by 2008.

Many analysts, including myself and I guess Bill Gates too, like this stock because of the location. The location of its plants, give it a significant financial advantage over Midwest ethanol producers selling to California.

It`s a simply a matter of transport. Corn, or any grain for that matter, is cheaper to transport than ethanol. So Pacific is right in the heart of the driving capital of the U.S. and will have low to no transport costs for the ethanol and only has to move the grain which is far cheaper.

Cure for the addicition

Ethanol may only be one element to cure U.S. woes. Clean burning coal, nuclear and other alternatives provide numerous opportunities for investors.

No matter what the immediate future holds for ethanol, the State of the Union may be in for a rude awakening as oil prices could ratchet up when OPEC meets again in March.

President Bush`s comments ruffled a few feathers in the Saudi Kingdom, apparently. It seems Mr. Bush`s rallying cry for the replacement of 75% of the United States` Mideast oil imports with ethanol and alternative energy sources by 2025 caused the Saudi ambassador to Washington, Prince Turki al-Faisal, to say he would have to ask Bush`s office "what he exactly meant by that."

If OPEC sees this as shot over the bow, oil prices could surge and the need for ethanol creation will be even more acute. That could bode very well for stocks and commodities related to ethanol and biofuel. Things seem to be heading that way in short order, especially for the sugar market which seems to make new highs everyday.

Ups

Die Quelle lautet selbstverständlich MarketWatch.

[emmischmied]

irgendwie kann ich mit diesem ständigen betonen von wegen kalifornien als standort bringe sooooo viiiiiiiiiiel tiefere kosten wie bei den anderen nichts anfangen. es tönt so als ob die transportkosten von ethanol bei 50% des verkaufspreises wären....
kann jemand damit was anfangen?

[smoke2000]

Kalifornien ist der autoreichste Bundesstaat. Ich war schon öfters in den Staaten und dies kann man beim Durchqueren der USA ziemlich leicht feststellen.
Hier liegt es also auf der Hand die Produktionsstätten so nah wie möglich beim Verbraucher aufzubauen.

Was die Transportkosten ausmacht, so habe ich bis jetzt kein Zahlenmaterial gefunden was erklärt, wie gross der Preisunterschied zwischen Ethanol- und Maistransport ist. Jedoch kann ich mir vorstellen, dass bei grösseren Transportmengen ein nicht unwesentlicher Unterschied besteht. Dies ist u.a. darauf zurückzuführen, dass ein Ethanoltransport ein Gefahrenguttransport ist, und die sind halt teurer.

Falls ich genauere Informationen diesbezüglich auftreiben kann, dann poste ich diese.

Schöne Grüsse,

Es ist egal, ob man Mais oder Ethanol zum Verbraucher transportieren muss, beides ist teuer.

GM Launches Ethanol Campaign

February 3, 2006
Washington, DC [RenewableEnergyAccess.com] "Live Green Go Yellow" is the national campaign slogan from General Motors to build awareness among consumers, energy producers and policy makers for ethanol/gasoline-blended fuel (E85). More than 1.5 million GM vehicles on the market today already have E85 capability -- and in 2006, GM will offer nine E85 FlexFuel models, bringing an additional 400,000 E85 FlexFuel vehicles into its fleet.
Solar Hot Water
"We are trying to start a movement that will heighten the focus on the need to diversify our energy needs with ethanol."

-- Brent Dewar, GM VP of marketing and advertising

"With the ongoing concern over national energy policy, the need to have more renewable fuel choices such as ethanol blended fuels is a great energy option available today," said Brent Dewar, GM vice president of marketing and advertising. "In the world of ethanol, yellow is the new green, since today its main source is from corn."

"We are trying to start a movement that will heighten the focus on the need to diversify our energy needs with ethanol. Beginning Feb. 8, our campaign will drive people to an E85 website, LiveGreenGoYellow.com, that will help consumers to be better informed of the benefits of ethanol," said Bob Kraut, director, GM Brand Marketing & Advertising Operations.

"The website has many fun and engaging tools, such as the GM Cornulator that calculates the amount of petroleum saved with E85," Kraut added.

Founded in 1908, Detroit-based GM employs about 325,000 people around the world. It has manufacturing operations in 32 countries and its vehicles are sold in 200 countries.

[smoke2000]

Dies gefällt mir am Besten: In den USA steigen immer mehr Autofahrer auf Biosprit um . In der EU ist der Umstiegstrend erst ganz am Anfang. Er wird sich mit jeder Öl- und Benzinpreiserhöhung beschleunigen.

Mit Pacific Ethanol kann man von Anfang an von diesem, meiner Meinung nach, langfristigen Trend profitieren

Hier eine kleine Zusammenfassung eines Artikels aus der Zeitschrift auto motor sport.
Ich habe nur den Teil zusammengefasst, der sich mit Thema Ethanol beschäftigt.
Den ganzen Artikel kann jeder in der Ausgabe 4/2006 von auto motor sport nachlesen.

Einige Informationen zu Ethanol

Herstellungsprinzip:
1.Vermahlung
2.Verzuckerung (Umwandlung in Glukose)
3.Fermentation (Umwandlung der Glukos in Ethanol und Kohlendioxid)
4.Destillation
5.Rektifikation (durch Entzug von Wasser wird das Ethanol gereinigt und konzenriert)

Ethanol enthält 35 % weniger Energie als Benzin.

Ethanol hat eine höhere Oktanzahl als Benzin. Ethanol ungefähr 111, Benzin zwischen 91 und 98.

Da der Heizwert niedriger ist, ist der Verbrauch höher.
Um 1 kg Ethanol zu verbrennen braucht man 9 kg Luft, um 1 kg Benzin zu verbrennen braucht man 14,7 kg Luft.

E85 : Kraftstoffgemisch, bestehend aus 85% Ethanol und 15% Benzin.

Was spricht für Ethanol?
-Herstellung aus nachwachsenden Rohstoffen
-Ausgeglichene CO2-Bilanz
-Belebung der Landwirtschaft, da höhere Produktion von Rohstoffen wie z.B. Weizen, Mais, Roggen, Stroh, Holz usw.
-Erschaffung von neuen Arbeitsplätzen in ländlichen Gebieten
-Verringerung der Abhängigkeit von Erdöl-exportierenden Ländern
-Futtermittel als Abfallprodukt bei der Produktion

Was spricht gegen Ethanol?
-Höhere Verbrauch, da geringerer Energie-Inhalt. Technisch besteht hier noch Potential den Verbrauch zu senken.
-Momentan kein flächendeckende Versorgung

Sicherlich findet man noch mehr Argumente die sowohl für als auch gegen Ethanol sprechen.

Die Norm DIN EN 228 für Ottokraftstoffe erlaubt bis zu 5% Ethanol im Benzin(E5). Dieses Gemisch verkrafter jeder Benziner ohne Umrüstung.
VW und Mercedes sprechen von 10% Ethanol-Anteil. Jedoch müssten dann die Kraftstoffnormen überarbeitet werden. Zusätzlich fallen dann technische Änderungen an den Fahrzeugen aus (Änderung des Kraftstoffsystems und Anpassung der Motorsteuerung).

U.a. bieten folgende Hersteller schon Autos an die mit Ethanol fahren :
Ford USA: Pickup-Truck F250 Super Chief + 4 weitere Modelle in diesem Jahr
Ford Europa : Focus Flexifuel
Saab : Saab 9-5 2.0t Bio-Power

[posting]20.070.503 von smoke2000 am 06.02.06 21:26:36[/posting]Weiterer Gruende fuer Ethanol:

-Sauberere Luft (in 12 US-Bundesstaaten ist Ethanolbeimischung bereits gesetzlich vorgeschrieben)


-Positive Energiebilanz bei der Herstellung
(+26%, waehrend die Herstellung von Benzin in der Raffenerie sogar mehr Energie verschlingt, als bei der Verbrennung wieder frei werden kann)


Der geringere Energiegehalt von Ethanol ist kein Effizienzproblem, sondern bestimmt nur die Reichweite eines Fahrzeugs abhaengig von der Tankgroesse.

Folgender Index wird sicherlich nicht der letzte sein. Ich könnte mir vorstellen, dass Pacific Ethanol in dem einen oder anderen Index resp. Fonds aufgenommen wird. Dies ist allerdings meine persönliche Meinung


UBS startet neuen Biotreibstoff-Index

UBS AG und Diapason Commodities Management S.A lancieren in den nächsten Wochen den ersten Biotreibstoff-Index - den UBS Diapason Global Biofuel Index (UBS-D GBFI). Dieser global ausgerichtete Index basiert auf verschiedenen Rohstoffen, die zur Herstellung von Ethanol und Bio-Diesel verwendet werden. Der Indexstand wird in den Währungen USD, EUR, CHF und JPY veröffentlicht.
Der steigende CO2-Ausstoß im Transportverkehr, die einhergehende globale Erwärmung und die Abhängigkeit gesamter Volkswirtschaften von Rohöl führen zu einem Umdenken in Politik, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft. Alternative Kraftstoffe treten in den Vordergrund. Ethanol und Bio-Diesel, die zwei wichtigsten alternativen Kraftstoffe, werden in stark steigenden Mengen produziert und immer mehr Nationen fördern die Verwendung dieser alternativen Kraftstoffe. UBS und Diapason sind der Auffassung, dass alternative Kraftstoffe Erdöl in den kommenden Jahren zwar nicht ersetzen, aber einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Deckung des weltweit steigenden Energiebedarfs sowie zur Reduktion des CO2-Ausstoßes leisten werden.
Der UBS Diapason Global Biofuel Index setzt sich aus verschiedenen Rohstoff-Futures zusammen. Die Indexgewichtung erfolgt gemäß der Bedeutung der einzelnen Rohstoffe in der Produktion von Ethanol und Bio-Diesel sowie aufgrund der Liquidität der zugrunde liegenden Rohstoff-Futures.
Dieser innovative Index eröffnet eine neue Dimension im Bereich der liquiden Rohstoff-Indizes und eignet sich als Basis für verschiedene strukturierte Finanzprodukte. Mit dem Index erhalten Anleger erstmals Zugang zu einem liquiden und effizienten Anlageinstrument, mit dem sie an der Marktentwicklung im Bereich der alternativen Kraftstoffe partizipieren können.

COMMODITIES CORNER
Ethanol`s poised to fuel a drive for corn
By Myra P. Saefong, MarketWatch
Last Update: 8:00 AM ET Feb 10, 2006


SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Corn`s looking particularly tasty these days -- at least for investors looking to cash in on the ethanol craze.
The renewable fuel comes from fermented sugar -- which can be derived from all kinds of biomass, including corn. As the world`s largest producer and exporter of the crop, it makes most sense for the United States to use corn to produce ethanol.
"Corn futures have the potential to explode higher due to increased demand from ethanol production," said Chris Kraft, an analyst at CKFutures.com.
Demand for the alternative fuel has already helped sugar prices double in the past six months to trade over 19 cents per pound on the New York Board of Trade -- their highest levels since 1981.
Corn has a long way to catch up. March corn trades around $2.25 a bushel on the Chicago Board of Trade, a five-month high.
But if you consider the federal tax credit on ethanol production in the U.S. and combine it with corn`s lofty supply levels -- it becomes a much more attractive market.
In January, the U.S. Department of Agriculture estimated corn`s 2005-2006 ending stocks -- the storable amount of the commodity at the end of the crop year -- at 2.4 billion bushels. That`s the largest since the 1987-1988 crop year, according to Michael McDougall, an analyst at Fimat USA.
"Corn is in an advantageous situation," he said, especially given that sugar production has been running at a deficit against consumption for the last three years.
Producer profit
Even before President Bush endorsed the use of ethanol in his State of the Union speech as a major means to reduce the country`s dependence on oil, companies producing the alternative fuel from corn were reaping its benefits.
"No one talks about ... the windfall that ethanol suppliers are collecting," said Tom Kloza, chief oil analyst at the Oil Price Information Service (OPIS), who estimates that profits can run to $50 to $60 a barrel.
Suppliers can get as much as $2.70 per gallon for ethanol that costs them $1.15 a gallon to make, and 10-15 cents a gallon to transport, he said.
With 42 gallons in a barrel, a tax credit of 51 cents per gallon of ethanol would equate to about $21 a barrel.
"Anyone manufacturing ethanol this spring and summer will be making the normal $21 a barrel or so they can count on because of the tax subsidy, but they are also making nearly $40 a barrel more because of the high price of gasoline and the perceived shortage of ethanol," he said.
"An ethanol plant could conceivably be making many multiples of what a refinery is making -- for the moment," he said.
That`ll motivate more construction of ethanol plants and maybe even contribute to a slight surplus in ethanol for next year, he said, though the supply outlook for this year`s spring/summer period "looks a bit scary."
Output growth
Ethanol`s popularity promises to grow significantly going forward.
Bush`s reference to new technology and a reduction in oil imports suggests the "use of ethanol in the U.S. energy future will grow well beyond the 7.5 billion annual gallons called for in the Energy Bill passed last year to something that could reach between 30 and 60 billion gallons over the next 20 years," said Neil Koehler, chief executive offer of Pacific Ethanol (PEIX :
pacific ethanol inc com)

PEIX, a refiner of the fuel based in California.
That "would make a large contribution to the 140 billion-gallon annual gasoline market in the U.S.," he said. Koehler`s company said it`s constructing a "large scale" ethanol production facility in Madera County, California, and developing four other plants on the West Coast.
Pacific Ethanol is a 100% ethanol play, said veteran commodities trader and MarketWatch commentator Kevin Kerr. It`ll have low or no transport costs because of its location in California -- it only has to transport the unrefined grain, which is far cheaper than moving ethanol, he said.
There are currently around 90 distilleries for ethanol production in operation in the U.S. -- with 26 in the construction stage, according to Fimat`s McDougall.
The country has the ability to make some 4.2 billion gallons a year of the alternative fuel -- "surpassing what Brazil made in 2004," said Spencer Kelly, an analyst at OPIS.
Brazil is one of the most advanced nations in its use of ethanol, which it began to develop in the 1970s as a way to reduce crushing oil costs. At the time, Brazil was importing about 80% of its oil and faced a frightening economic crisis.
Today, over 40% of gasoline demand in Brazil is supplied by ethanol, according to Koehler.
U.S. ethanol production grew over 20% last year and it`s on the same growth pace for this year, with over 1 billion gallons of new production capacity currently under construction, said Koehler.
Corn`s promise
The prospect of higher ethanol demand and production bodes well for both sugar and corn.
"The added benefit of investing in either corn or sugar is that investors will also participate in the demand for the food products," said Emanuel Balarie, a senior market strategist at Wisdom Financial.
Outside of North America, sugarcane or sugar beets are "by far the preferred inputs in ethanol production," and it`s "universally accepted that sugarcane is more efficient for producing it," said Kelly.
In the U.S., some 90% of all the fuel ethanol produced is made from corn feedstock, said Kelly. It`s the second major U.S. refined corn product behind corn sweeteners, according to the Corn Refiners Association.
Right now, there is a huge supply or corn, and corn prices have been "dragged down by high production," said McDougall. "That makes ethanol much more attractive."
Concerns about the Avian Flu`s potential to hurt export sales for feed has also kept corn from sustaining a big rally until recently, said Kelly.
And while using corn to create ethanol may seem expensive, if Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez were to shut down his refineries, or OPEC shuts off the spigot, "it`s going to seem very cheap in comparison to $100 oil," said Kerr, who edits MarketWatch`s Global Resources Trader.
The negatives
Even so, corn-based ethanol has a long way to go, said Wisdom Financial`s Balarie.
There aren`t that many ethanol gas stations in America and "although there are currently over 5 million cars that can run on E85 -- 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline -- minus the Midwest, most have no means to fill up their gas tanks," he said.
Pacific Ethanol`s Koehler pegged the nation`s number of gas stations offering E85 at about 600, with companies looking to build significantly more stations as well as more cars capable to handle the gas blend.
It`ll take time get corn-based ethanol plants running -- "nothing will happen overnight," Alaron`s Flynn said.
And the corn market will see "competition for feed products that are used to make ethanol" because the fuel can be made from switchgrass, trees and a variety of other things, he said.
It`ll take "many, many years" for ethanol to significantly reduce the country`s dependence on oil, said Jim Wyckoff, an analyst at TradingEducation.com. It took the Brazilian government over 20 years to convince its citizens that ethanol was the ticket to doing just that, he said.
Investment alternatives
Either way, no matter how you look at it, investing in ethanol isn`t a far-fetched idea.
For investors wanting to get in on the action, the better starting point would probably be buying stock in companies that are starting up ethanol plants all across the U.S. Midwest -- if they are publicly traded, said TradingEducation.com`s Wyckoff.
He thinks buying the physical product -- corn -- is a bad idea. "The fundamentals in corn are bearish and trading futures as an `investor` is foolish," he said.
Brazil, the world`s biggest producer of ethanol, offers another investment prospect.
But the "field in Brazil is certainly very competitive" and it`s already receiving a "massive amount of investment," said Fimat`s McDougall.
Commodities futures traders have the biggest selection. Sugar, corn and ethanol futures are traded on various exchanges.
Corn futures trade on the Chicago Board of Trade, and open interest in the corn-based ethanol contract has been growing daily since its start in March of 2005. Open interest marked a record 892 contracts on Wednesday, said spokeswoman Jennifer Rook.
The New York Board of Trade deals with sugar futures as well as a sugar-based world ethanol contract, which began trading in May of 2004.
The ethanol contract remains "on the boards," but with no trading volume, according to spokesman Guy Taylor.
"We feel the contract was ahead of its time and that there will be a need for it in the near future," he said.
Hopefully, the increased flow of ethanol through world markets "will provoke another start up of the [NYBOT] contract, or sustain the Chicago contract," said McDougall.

hallo "alkohol liebhaber"!
soweit ich informiert bin wird doch ethanol aus zucker(rohr)gewonnen. wenn sich diese technologie in den nächsten tagen/wochen/monaten/jahren durchsetzen sollte, wäre es da nicht denkbar, dass so eine aktie wie "Suedzucker" davon provitieren könnte???

[emmischmied]

[posting]20.139.240 von Gummihund am 10.02.06 17:32:15[/posting]ethanol kann aus allem gewonnen werden was zellulose und zucker hat...also auch aus holz, blättern, gras, weizen, mais,....

in südamerika gewinnt man es überwiegend aus zuckerrohr - ich muss bekennen leider zu lasten des regenwald - und ne menge fzg. bewegen sich mit dem zeug dort.

[maximus77]

#82 Wenn die Strafzölle der EU gegen Zucker aufgehoben werden würde, würde dann Billigzucker aus anderen Ländern importiert werden. Südzucker hat meiner Meinung dann schlchte Karten-Natürlich kann ich mich auch irren,und werde eines besseren belehrt....

Hey Leute

In diesem Thread reden wir doch eigentlich über Pacific Ethanol
Zucker, weche Art auch immer, spielt hier meiner Meinung keine Rolle. Pacific Ethanol setzt in der ersten Phase auf jeden Fall bei der Herstellung auf Getreide und Mais.
Und bitte lasst uns etwas nicht vergessen, wir haben es hier mit einer amerikanischen Firma, die zuerst einmal an der Westküste der USA tätig ist, zu tun. Südzucker spielt in diesem Markt, meiner Meinung nach, keine Rolle.

Schöne Grüsse,

[posting]20.146.823 von smoke2000 am 11.02.06 02:57:06[/posting]hallo smoke2000 und alle anderen,

natürlich geht es hier nur um ethanol. ich habe mir nur folgendes vorgestellt... was passiert, wenn die usa in den nächsten jahren ihren kraftstoffbedarf auf ethanol umstellen... dies hätte auch auswirkung auf unser region...
dies könnte doch zu einem weltweiten boom führen. zucker ist in den letzten jahren auch nicht billiger geworden...und aus zucker kann man diesen kraftstoff ja auch gewinnen...

mir geht es darum etwas über den tellerrand zu schauen, und evtl. übergreifende marktentwicklungen zu diskutieren...

siehe z.b. den solarboom. der fing hier in deutschland an, und ging in den letzten monaten auf die usa über...

warum das gleiche nicht auch jetzt mit ethanol... die usa wird m. E. nach den solarboom nicht in dem umfang mit machen wie wir uns dass vorstellen... dafür sind die m.E. zu arrogant, denn die wollen ihre eigenen wege gehen und es dann anderen auftrichtern (genau deswegen bin ich auch in ethanol investiert).

langfristig könnte ich mir jedoch auch vorstellen, dass wir dann denen hinterher hinken und dann könnten doch solche werte aus der zweiten liga (evtl. suedzucker) hierzulande nicht uninteressant sein.

[Gummihund]

hab ich im netz gefunden... kleine bestätigung über eine evtl. deutsche "pacific ethanol"....


http://212.63.80.132/public/contents/Article.cfm?POSFN=Nachrichten&CNTID=47163

Ab 10. Februar 2006 wird E85 unter der Marke .CropPower85. als leistungsstarker und Klima schonender Qualitätskraftstoff für Flexible Fuel Vehicles (FFV) an den OIL!-Tankstellen in Hennef, Saarlouis und Troisdorfangeboten. CropPower85 wird von der Südzucker Bioethanol GmbH in Zeitz hergestellt und besteht zu rd. 85 % aus Bioethanol, dem rd. 15 % Ottokraftstoff beigemischt werden. Mit einem Preis, der rd. 35% unter dem von Super liegt, ist CropPower85 eine attraktive Alternative für die Nutzer von Flexible Fuel Vehicles (FFV).



Mit der Markteinführung des Qualitätskraftstoffs CropPower85 legen OIL!-Tankstellen und Südzucker Bioethanol GmbH den Grundstein für ein flächendeckendes Tankstellennetz für E85. Beide Unternehmen verfügen über die notwendigen Voraussetzungen, um E85 als Kraftstoffalternative in Deutschland anzubieten.Unter der Marke .OIL!. betreibt die OIL!-Tankstellen GmbH im Unternehmensverbund der Marquard & Bahls AG, Hamburg, seit 1994 ein kontinuierlich wachsendes Tankstellennetz in Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz. Von den rund 250 OIL!-Tankstellen liegen mehr als 200 in Deutschland. Mit dem Vertrieb von Biodiesel und jetzt E85 als Ergänzung zu dem herkömmlichen Kraftstoffangebot ist die OIL!-Tankstellen GmbH die innovative Alternative im unabhängigen Tankstellenmarkt.



Der an den OIL!-Tankstellen erhältliche E85-Qualitätskraftstoff wird von der Südzucker Bioethanol GmbH in der in Konzeption und Dimension neuartigen Anlage in Zeitz produziert. Jährlich werden hier aus 700.000 t Weizen 260.000 m³ Bioethanol hergestellt, das der Hauptbestandteil des leistungsfähigen Qualitätskraftstoffs CropPower85 ist. Produktion und Vermarktung dieser und weiterer Produkte erfolgen unter der neuen Dachmarke .CropEnergies. Voraussetzung für ein flächendeckendes Angebot von E85 in Deutschland sind allerdings auch in Zukunft die politischen Rahmenbedingungen. Beide Unternehmen erwarten, dass das bestehende System der Mineral ölsteuerbefreiung für biogene Kraftstoffe auch für Kraftstoffe mit einem hohen Anteil biogener Bestandteile weitergeführt wird.



In Deutschland haben bislang die Automobilhersteller Ford und Saab mit dem Ford Focus FFV, dem Ford Focus C-Max FFV bzw. dem Saab 9-5 BioPower Fahrzeuge am Markt, die CropPower85 tanken können. Auch andere Fahrzeughersteller beschäftigen sich mit solchen Fahrzeugen. CropPower85 verfügt aufgrund des darin enthaltenen Bioethanols über "hervorragende Produkteigenschaften in Anlehnung an eine europäische Produktempfehlung". Mit mehr als 110 Oktan ist CropPower85 einer der leistungsstärksten Kraftstoffe, die jemals an einer Tankstelle in Deutschland verfügbar waren. Neben einer effektiveren Verbrennung kann mit CropPower85 die Leistung der in Deutschland verfügbaren FFVs im Vergleich zu einer Betankung mit Superbenzin gesteigert werden. So beträgt beispielsweise der Leistungsgewinn beim Saab 9-5 Bio Power rd. 30 PS (nach Werksangabe). Darüber hinaus ist CropPower85 äußerst schwefel- und aromatenarm und trägt zu einer Senkung der klimaschädlichen CO2-Emissionen bei. Wirtschaftlich attraktiv und erprobt


Aufgrund des niedrigeren Brennwerts von Bioethanol im Vergleich zu Superbenzin haben FFVs im E85-Betrieb einen erhöhten Kraftstoffverbrauch. Dieser Mehrverbrauch dürfte durch die derzeitige Preisstellung von CropPower85 mehr als ausgeglichen werden, so dass der Endverbraucher einen finanziellen Vorteil im E85-Betrieb hat, der sich bei weiter steigenden Rohölpreisen noch erhöht. Generell kann die Abhängigkeit von steigenden Rohölpreisen durch CropPower85 reduziert werden. In den USA und Brasilien werden E85-Kraftstoffe bereits in großen Mengen im Straßenverkehr genutzt. In Europa nimmt Schweden mit rd. 300 Tankstellen mit E85 im Angebot eine Vorreiterrolle ein.

[maximus77]

#89 In Schweden will man ja bis 2020 ganz vom Öl wegkommen.Kennst du vielleicht Firmen oder Fabriken in Schweden die sich auf die Herstellung von alternativen Kraftstoffen spezialisiert haben, und von dem wachsendem Boom profitieren werden?Ich glaube in Europa(wenn mich nicht alles täuscht) ist ABENGOA S.A. ACCIONES WKN: 904239 ISIN:ES0105200416 die Nummer 1!Aber in Schweden kenne ich keine?Vielleicht sollte mann sich da mal auf dem Markt umschauen.....

[Gummihund]

[posting]20.152.357 von maximus77 am 11.02.06 13:54:29[/posting]wenn du mich meinst, muss meine antwort leider NEIN lauten. ich kenne keine schwedische firma die ethanol herstellt.

evtl. mal googeln (ethanol schwenden wkn)

[Gummihund]

bin bei meiner suche auf folgenden wert gestossen. leider sind die jedoch nicht in schweden vertreten. aber wer weiß, vielleicht ab morgen

so wie ich die lage verstehe, kann jeder sich eine solche anlage bauen und das zeug verhöckern. scheinbar verbergen sich hinter den betreibern einige öko-bauern-verbände.


Lurgi erhält Biodiesel-Aufträge für 70 Mio. Euro
Lurgi im Konzern der GEA Group AG


05.12.2005
Die Lurgi AG hat fünf neue Aufträge zum Bau von Biodiesel-Anlagen in Deutschland erhalten. Das Gesamt-Auftragsvolumen beträgt rund 70 Mio. Euro. Seit Juli 2005 konnte Lurgi damit acht neue Aufträge für Biodiesel-Anlagen mit einem Gesamtwert von rund 140 Mio. Euro und einem jährlichen Produktionsvolumen von knapp einer Million Tonnen Biodiesel gewinnen. Zudem hat Lurgi in den USA einen Auftrag zum Bau einer Bioethanol-Anlage im Wert von rund 100 Millionen Euro unterzeichnet, der das Auftragsvolumen im Bereich Biokraftstoffe nach erfolgter Buchung weiter erhöhen wird. "Lurgi profitiert als einer der weltweiten Markt- und Technologieführer besonders stark von der boomenden Nachfrage nach Biokraftstoffen. 60 bis 70 Prozent des weltweit produzierten Biodiesels wird nach Fertigstellung der neuen Anlagen mit Lurgi-Technologie produziert. In Deutschland werden es sogar 70 bis 80 Prozent sein. Die Konzentration auf profitable Eigentechnologien in wachstumsstarken Märkten zeigt sich auch in einer zunehmend positiven Geschäftsentwicklung“, so Klaus Moll, Vorsitzender des Vorstands der Lurgi AG, auf einer Pressekonferenz. Im dritten Quartal 2005 schrieb Lurgi erstmals seit der in diesem Jahr abgeschlossenen strategischen Fokussierung wieder schwarze Zahlen. Das Unternehmen konzentriert sich auf den Bau von Anlagen zur Herstellung von Biokraftstoffen aus nachwachsenden Rohstoffen sowie auf Anlagen zur Produktion petrochemischer Produkte wie zum Beispiel Methanol, Kunststoffe oder synthetischer Treibstoffe auf Erdgas-Basis.

Ich las gerade, dass die weltweite Ethanol-Produktion nach Schätzungen der International Energy Agency (IEA) bis 2012 auf über 17 Milliarden Gallonen (rund 65 Milliarden Liter) steigen soll (siehe http://www.yeald.de/Yeald/a/41521/ethanol__sorgt_das__fluess… ) Ist das so richtig? Hat da jemand konkrete Informationen?

[smoke2000]

Interessanter Artikel. Sollten die Schätzungen und Prognosen eintreten, so sehen wir in Zukunft noch ganz andere Kurse bei Pacific Ethanol

Hier noch eine kleine Zusammenfassung zum Thema

Highlight:
Ralph Groschen, a marketing specialist for the Minnesota Department of Agriculture, spoke with the Star Tribune about the growth trend that has been established in the ethanol industry, as the government`s recent sponsorship of energy legislation has helped widen demand for the alternative fuel.

Summary:
- The ethanol business, once perceived as an industry kept alive mostly by government support, is becoming more viable amid worries of a global oil crunch.

- Innovation and investment are transforming the process of turning corn kernels into auto fuel, making it the leading near-term alternative to petroleum for the nation`s 225 million cars and trucks .

- "The industry is growing out of its gourd," Ralph Groschen, a marketing specialist for the Minnesota Department of Agriculture, told the Star Tribune.

- Now they`re saying, `What if we get these plants built, and the ethanol market doesn`t grow as fast as it`s supposed to?`"

- Agribusiness giant Archer Daniels Midland Co. is building a plant that will make five times as much of the gasoline additive as a typical operation.

- Ethanol plants that have long relied on a 51-cent per gallon excise tax credit to keep in business are becoming competitive and profitable .

- At the same time, producers are installing technologies to burn less natural gas in the production of the alternative fuel and cut emissions of global warming pollutants - a step that could muffle critics of ethanol.

- Even an investment firm owned by Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates has invested $84 million into Pacific Ethanol Inc., which is planning to build five West Coast plants .

- A mandate in the energy bill President Bush signed last summer all but guarantees the industry will double its annual capacity in the next five to seven years, to more than 7.5 billion gallons.

- Today, ethanol accounts for less than 3 percent of the fuel from gas pumps, and only a tiny percentage of gas stations offer E-85.

- Rep. Gil Gutknecht, R-Minn., has proposed a 10 percent nationwide ethanol mandate by 2010 .

First bio plastic ready for the market
By Jeremy Grant in Washington
Monday, February 13, 2006
Posted: 01:47 PM EST (18:47 London)

continued from previous page

ADM is expanding its production of ethanol, a maize-based fuel that received a boost as an alternative to fossil fuels such as petrol in president George W. Bush`s state of the union speech last month.

Allen Andreas, ADM chief executive, said: "As the world`s demand for petroleum continues to increase, ADM believes that this facility is a positive step towards producing renewable plastics that offer the global marketplace an alternative to traditional petroleum-derived plastics."

ADM and Metabolix said the new plant would produce "high-performance natural plastics that are eco-friendly and based on sustainable, renewable resources". The plant, to be based in North America, would have annual capacity of 50,000 tonnes.

The new plastic has been produced after research by both companies into a new molecule called polyhydroxyalkanoate, or PHA, based on the fermentation of corn starch and sugars.

Jim Barber, Metabolix chief executive, said: "A broadly useful family of bio-based, biodegradable natural plastics will be commercially available for the first time."

PHA natural plastics are a versatile family of polymers that can be rigid or elastic. They can be converted into moulded plastics such as toys, coatings, film or adhesives.

The companies said PHA plastics had "excellent shelf life and resistance even to hot liquids, greases and oils". Yet they biodegrade in aquatic, marine and soil environments and under anaerobic conditions, such as found in septic systems and municipal waste treatment plants.

ich bin eigentlich schon überzeugt von der Zukunft dieser Company. ABER: Die Market Cap liegt mittlerweile schon bei fast einer halben Milliarde Euro. Kann mir mal jemand mitteilen wie denn momentan die Umsätze der Firma sind bzw. welche Umsätze für die nächsten Jahre erwartet werden? Klar es wird die Zukunft gehandelt, wenn ich mir da die Qcells anschaue mit ein paar vielleicht hundert Millionen Umsatz und mehrerern Milliarden Bewertung dann kann ich mir das bei PE auch vorstellen. Was mich auch positiv stimmt, sind die Wahnsinns-Umsätze in USA. Bitte um Eure Meinungen.

Was nicht fällt, wird steigen. Unglaublich, wie sich peix entwickelt. Bin aber aufgrund des Preises schon skeptisch. Ethanol ist ja gut und schön. Aber wohin soll die Reise gehen? Nehmen wir an, der Titel verdoppelt sich. Dann wäre peix 1 Milliarde $ wert!

In drei Jahren mag ein solcher Wert gerechtfertigt sein. Aber jetzt? Wie auch immer, wenn sich der Nahostkonflikt weiter anspannt und sich der Irankonflikt zuspitzt und damit der Ölpreis weiter steigt (aufgrund des Kälteeinbruchs in den USA werden in den nächsten Wochen vermutlich auch die Lagerbestände abnehmen) wird die Aktie wohl noch weiter steigen.

Der Jahresabschluss verspätet sich. Zudem würd ich persönlich im Hinblick auf die Q1-Zahlen aus diesem Titel sowieso raus gehen. (Aber das ist nur meine Meinung). Wohin soll denn die Reise gehen? Soll der Titel eine Milliarde Dollar!!!!! wert sein, ohne einen Penny Umsatz zu erziehlen? - Kompletter Schwachsinn, wenn ihr mich fragt. Das einzige Gegenargument, dass man hier bringen kann, ist, dass Angebot und Nachfrage den Preis bestimmen. Und wenn alle die Aktien haben wollen, weil Billyboy drin ist, wirds wohl noch weiter steigen.

Persönlich ziehe ich Xethanol vor. Dort kommen in wenigen Wochen nach dem Umsatzstärksten Quartal überhaupt in Iowa (dem Ethanolstaat schlechthin) die Q1-Zahlen heraus.

[notebook]

Charttechnisch sieht es aber für peix sehr gut aus. 20$-Grenze geknackt. Marktumfeld ideal (Öl- und Benzinpreise steigen). Von daher muss man diesen Rücksetzer bei peix zum Nachkaufen nutzen (sofern man in einen so hoch bewerteten Titel rein will). Nicht vergessen! Billyboy ist zu tieferen Kursen rein. Der Mann setzt die Trends - er rennt ihnen nicht nach.

[notebook]

Was mich am meisten ankackt ist die Tatsache, dass xthn und peix eine positive Korrelation aufweisen. Würde mich nicht wundern, dass wenn peix korrigiert, xthn mitgezogen wird. Und aufgrund der schwachsinnigen Bewertung von peix halte ich eine Korrektur auch für möglich. Natürlich nicht jetzt, aber in ein paar Wochen könnte es schon anders aussehen. Langfristig zählen reale Gewinne. Ich hoffe, dass sich hier bald die Spreu vom Weizen trennen wird. Oder dann soll diese peix endlich anfangen, Umsätze zu erzielen.

@notebook

Lies folgendes mal durch:

"Our Family of Companies

Kinergy Marketing is the ethanol sales and distribution arm of Pacific Ethanol, Inc. Formerly an independent company founded by PEI's Neil Koehler, Kinergy has a strong and rapidly growing base of customers who appreciate our commitment to exceptional service. Because the demand for ethanol in California far exceeds the production capacity of existing and proposed ethanol plants in the state, Kinergy will continue to sell ethanol produced in the Midwest as well as selling all the ethanol that PEI produces in California. Shipping ethanol from the Midwest by rail to intermediate storage and then out by truck to gasoline distribution terminals can be complicated, but we have made ourselves experts in transportation logistics, and our emphasis on superior service has led to close relationships with both suppliers and customers. Driven by the increasing demand for ethanol as well as the growing reputation of the company, Kinergy's annual revenues have jumped from $15 million in 2002 to over $100 million in 2005. The company's market area has also expanded from California to include customers in Arizona, Nevada, and Oregon."

@smoke2000,

habe ich Archer mit PEIX verglichen

Fact ist aber, das Archer nicht nur einer größten Agrarkonzerne der Welt sind, sondern mit ihrem Ethanol-Business bereits die unangefochtene Nr.1 in den USA sind. In Deutschland sind sie wohl ebenfalls führend bei Biodiesel. Die Liste die ich reingestellt habe, zeigt doch ganz klar das PEIX hier nur ein kleiner Player in diesem schnell wachsenden Markt ist. Der große Trumpf für PEIX ist die Börsennotierung und der Einstieg von Gates. Es gibt zur Zeit keine großen Investmentmöglichkeiten für Ethanol-Aktien, und darum stürzen sich zur Zeit halt alle auf die wenigen Unternehmen die bereits gelistet sind. Denke mal der Hype bei PEIX wird noch eine ganze Zeit weiterlaufen. Wenn dann die Produktion anläuft kommt das große Erwachen, denn die Margen sind in diesem Business sehr sehr niedrig .... kennt jemand Mais-Aktien ? Sollten von der steigenden Produktion in den Staaten wohl am meisten profitieren

[bessermacher]

--> XETHANOL - that is the right way !!!

[smoke2000]

Aus einem US-Board:

"The real intrinsic value of Pacific Ethanol may be in the business model of Pacific Ethanol and the intellectual capital of the management team. In reviewing, Pacific Ethanol’s business model they have decided to go with plants that have a smaller foot print - 35 million to 50 million gallons a year. Based upon their approach the ethanol plants of the future will be similar to the local utility company model. ADM is currently the industry leader in producing ethanol. However, if you produce 500 million gallons a year and can not transport outside of the Midwest you will not be successful. The demand for ethanol will be across the United States and on both coasts. Keep in mind that ethanol can not be transported via pipeline. Ethanol presents special challenges that require experience in the handling of this commodity.

In addition, waste water issues exist - Pacific Ethanol plans to recycle their water and there are plenty of cows for the wet distilled feed in the area. Bugs and water can contaminate ethanol. Ethanol must be added at the rack prior to sending the truck to the filling station. Pacific Ethanol’s subsidiary Kinergy Marketing and Distribution may be the hidden jewel in the equation. Ethanol requires special handling and special equipment. Do not over look or ignore the logistics and distribution of ethanol. Kinergy is going to play a major role in Pacific Ethanol and the industry."

Ethanol Companies Line Up for IPOs
Gerelyn Terzo ([e-mail])
April 10, 2006


Until now, public investors have had few choices when it came to investing in ethanol producers, with only a handful of listed companies out there. Sustained high commodity prices, however, coupled with President George Bush's recent endorsement of alternative energy, have inspired other ethanol plays to take their chances in the public domain as investor hunger for these assets grows.

"The everyday spotlight on alternative energy won't be just another wave, it will keep going," said Jerry Eicke, a managing partner at Cornell Capital Partners, a Jersey City, NJ-based hedge fund.

In the past couple of weeks, two ethanol companies filed with the SEC to do IPOs: Aventine Renewable Energy and VeraSun Energy.

VeraSun, based in Brookings, SD, is among the top ethanol producers in the US, with facilities in Aurora, SD as well as Fort Dodge, Iowa. It is building a third facility in Charles City, Iowa, and plans to use the proceeds from its planned $150 million IPO to construct two more plants in the upper Midwest. Morgan Stanley and Lehman Brothers are the lead managers on the deal, while AG Edwards is a co-manager. Calls to the company were not returned.

Aventine, an ethanol producer with facilities in Illinois and Nebraska, currently plans a $50 million offering, though the size of that deal could grow.

ASAlliances Biofuels, a partnership of agricultural giant Cargill and several other companies, is another private ethanol producer eyeing the public markets. "We are starting to analyze our strategic options for financing our future developments," said David Black, ASAlliances' CEO. He made the remarks at a recent ethanol briefing hosted by WestLB. "It's hard to say a specific date at this point, but we are exploring alternatives." ASAlliances is in the process of constructing three 100-million-gallon ethanol facilities and hopes to complete development in 2007.

Bankers and industry executives say other privately held companies are also ramping up operations in anticipation of possible listings. One such company based in California is "pretty far along. It's a matter of obtaining a piece of equity financing, and sometimes that's the hardest piece of capital to get," said one person familiar with the company's plans.

Another is a group of farmers in the Northeast who are looking to construct an ethanol facility. "These farmers don't have to put up all the money or go around for bank financing. There are private equity funds and hedge funds that could assist them with the costs of getting them to the public marketplace," said a person close to the project.

The first pure-play ethanol company to trade publicly in the US was Fresno, Calif.-based Pacific Ethanol, which did its IPO in March 2005 on the Nasdaq. Its shares have spiked some 165%. "It was risky. It was like throwing a long pass in a game and hoping by the time that the ball gets there, somebody catches it," said Neil Koehler, Pacific Ethanol's president and CEO.

But in the past two weeks, Pacific Ethanol demonstrated one of the challenges involved in going public when it revealed it would delay filing its annual report. "It was the first annual filing for us as a public company, and it requires a tremendous amount of effort in a post-Sarbanes Oxley world," said Koehler. Essentially, the company didn't get its audit process completed on time.

That delay triggered a lapse in other transactions, including an $84 million capital infusion from Bill Gates's investment firm, Cascade Investment, which is buying 5.2 million shares of Pacific convertible preferred stock. It also delayed a $34 million debt financing with Hudson United Bank and Comerica Bank.

Koehler, however, says that everything is on track and that the Cascade investment and debt financing should close in a timely manner. Pacific Ethanol plans to use the proceeds to construct a new $65 million ethanol production plant, the first of five it plans to build on the West Coast by 2008. "We have sufficient equity to build the five plants. We use debt on a project-by-project basis," Koehler said. Pacific Ethanol will continue to look to Hudson United and Comerica, as well as other banks, for future debt financings.

Before going public, many companies will turn to private equity or hedge funds for capital infusions. Ideally, the company will put that capital to good use, perhaps to make an acquisition or finish building a facility. But although alternative investors have already devoted billions to alternative energy, most are taking their time to back ethanol development. "We've looked at several ethanol companies, but we haven't made an investment up to this point," said Eicke at Cornell, which meanwhile recently committed $15 million to help solar energy company Barnabus Energy finance the purchases of Solar Roofing Systems and Connect Renewable Energy.

Eicke explains that Cornell's main focus is on choosing the correct management teams. "Not all of these plants are going to succeed. From our perspective, you always need to bet on a good management team. If you have a good capital source and a good management team, then even if plan A doesn't work...there's always going to be a plan B," he said.

kann sich mal jemand die Mühe machen und das ganze was Smoke hier reingestellt hat ganz kurz auf Deutsch zusammenfassen ???

[kep]

Die Rede in diesem Newsletter ist von XTHN
Hier wird zwar gepusht, was das Zeug hält, trotzdem es interessant.




I need to tell you more about...
The $9.75-a-Share Company That Could Become
the Dominant Name in Ethanol Before this Summer
Over the past few years, soaring oil and gas prices - as well as federal and state clean fuel programs - have pushed demand for ethanol to record highs.

As recently as 1996, the U.S. ethanol industry was producing just over 1.1 billion gallons of ethanol each year. By 2002, that figure had nearly doubled - to 2.13 billion gallons.

Then it began to take off - production reached 2.8 billion gallons by 2003...and had climbed all the way to 3.4 billion by 2004...and 3.9 billion by 2005!

But demand for ethanol is about to climb at an even faster rate...which means an incredibly bright future for the $9.75 stock I'm recommending right now.

And remember - this is a company that has already delivered three-week gains of 160% earlier this year.




At this very moment, ethanol - and the entire renewable energy market - are exploding with interest, venture capital money, Wall Street funds, and incentives by state, local and federal governments.
Because of soaring demand - and pending legislation - I'm recommending you buy shares of this stock immediately!



As demand continues to soar, more and more people will take notice of this relatively young company.

They generated $5 million in revenue in 2005...but they're projecting revenues of $15 million for 2006.

And here's the best part of the story: Because of this company's revolutionary technology, they could easily become the dominant player in the ethanol game before this summer starts to heat up.

Here's what I mean:

For the past two years, this company has been making ethanol out of alternative sources.

So instead of producing ethanol from corn - as is most common - this company is using materials such as candy waste, cornstalks, grass clippings, newspapers and sawdust.

It's called cellulosic bioethanol...and it has all sorts of advantages.

First and foremost, the materials they're using to produce ethanol are cheap and abundant, whereas corn is subject to supply problems and wild price swings.

Just in Iowa alone, there's enough corn-based biomass (stalks, leaves and husks) to support 600 million gallons of ethanol production.

But perhaps the biggest advantage this company has is one that hasn't come into play.

At least not yet.

You see, in the event that corn prices rise suddenly - a very real possibility, as you'll soon see - this company could very well become the only game in town.

Why would that happen?

Because U.S. government forecasters have recently gone on record calling for the drought that has plagued a good deal of the Southwest and the central and southern plains to continue - and perhaps even worsen - through at least June.

At a mid-March press conference, David Johnson, director of the National Weather Service, warned that, "We need to monitor this drought situation very closely."

But not only do forecasters and farmers need to monitor this situation...so do those investors expecting easy profits from "traditional" ethanol stocks.

"Corn-based" ethanol companies could take a terrible beating as the price of corn rises. And there's no telling just how severe this drought might be.

If corn is in short supply - or priced at excessively high levels - corn-based ethanol production could be forced into a massive slowdown.

But because this company uses alternative materials - including waste products, wood chips and candy waste - they'll continue production completely unaffected by the drought or by a decrease in the supply of corn.

Given the soaring demand for ethanol, the value of this company - thanks to its revolutionary technology - could skyrocket quickly in the event of a drought.

After all, the ethanol needed to comply with legislation is going to have to come from somewhere. And if corn-based ethanol producers are struggling to meet demand due to rising production costs...our trade will look even sweeter!

What's the potential upside for this company?

It's hard to say, really - and I don't want to throw any outrageous predictions at you that have no basis in fact.

So let's look at it this way...

Pacific Ethanol (PEIX) is a California-based ethanol producer that has had extraordinary success to date. Right now, Pacific Ethanol has a market cap of roughly $651 million.

The $9.75-a-share company I'm recommending right now actually has a brighter future - due to their advanced technology ...and their market cap currently stands at $150 million.

So we're talking about the potential for growth of 310% or more...

At this point, though, I've only told you part of the story. Now it's time to reveal...
The Government "Secret" That's Just Like Money in the Bank!
There is absolutely no question that right now is the best time to own renewable energy stocks. From the CEOs of Chevron-Texaco and British Petroleum to Wall Street brokerage houses and mainstream media outlets...everybody is talking about renewable energy.

But here's the key - the renewable energy bull market is still very much in its infancy.

Even more importantly, the renewable energy market has just entered a long-term phase of fast-moving gains.

This sets up perfectly, of course, for "hit and run" traders who are interested in making a year's worth of gains in as little as a week or two - week after week.

But it gets even better...

Renewable energy stocks are now prime candidates for quick trades thanks to a government "secret" that's as reliable as Old Faithful.

Every time a State government debates or passes a renewable energy bill, I'm finding more and more stocks that rally around the news.

And guess what? There are no less than 25 State initiatives pending regarding renewable energy.



That means, there's going to be at least 25 separate occasions to make quick, easy trading profits in the weeks and months ahead. And I'll guide you to them, every step of the way.

The most recent one was the State of Washington, which passed a renewable energy-ethanol bill on February 13 - and this is a perfect example.

In a two-day period, Pacific Ethanol - the company I mentioned earlier - went from $16.50 a share on Friday, February 10 to $19.95 on Monday, February 13. It was a gain of 21%...or more than 2.5 times the gain that the Dow experienced over the last two years.

However, an even smaller ethanol stock experienced an even more dramatic run-up. On February 9, this ethanol stock that I'm talking about was trading for about $4 a share. After the Washington bill was passed, it traded for $5.30 a share, a gain of 33% in three days!

Buy the Bill, Sell the Law
The Washington bill is a great example of what traders can make playing renewable energy stocks this way. But nothing compares to what occured in January.

160% in just 15 trading days. $10,000 into $26,000.

That's what the California legislature and President Bush handed traders between January 10 and January 31.

In those days, the California legislature passed its renewable energy law and President Bush gave his State of the Union speech.

This tiny ethanol stock went from $2.30 on January 10 to $5.99 on January 31.

It was easy money. Take a look at 3 stocks that went ballistic during those 2 weeks.







In fact, every time a State debates or passes a renewable bill or law (especially if the law has an ethanol provision), this stock is going to skyrocket in price.

The next opportunity is coming up quickly, as the Hawaii State Legislature is right now debating a bill proposed by its governor that would transform Hawaii from the nation's most oil-dependent state into a leader in the renewable energy game.

The very moment that this legislation passes, a number of renewable stocks are going to see a surge in price.

@kep

Die Rede ist von mehreren Ethanol-Werten, u.a. auch Pacific Ethanol.

Um welchen Wert handelt es sich denn hier
Hier noch mal der Auszug (und bitte ganz lesen):
The first pure-play ethanol company to trade publicly in the US was Fresno, Calif.-based Pacific Ethanol, which did its IPO in March 2005 on the Nasdaq. Its shares have spiked some 165%. "It was risky. It was like throwing a long pass in a game and hoping by the time that the ball gets there, somebody catches it," said Neil Koehler, Pacific Ethanol\'s president and CEO.

But in the past two weeks, Pacific Ethanol demonstrated one of the challenges involved in going public when it revealed it would delay filing its annual report. "It was the first annual filing for us as a public company, and it requires a tremendous amount of effort in a post-Sarbanes Oxley world," said Koehler. Essentially, the company didn\'t get its audit process completed on time.

That delay triggered a lapse in other transactions, including an $84 million capital infusion from Bill Gates\'s investment firm, Cascade Investment, which is buying 5.2 million shares of Pacific convertible preferred stock. It also delayed a $34 million debt financing with Hudson United Bank and Comerica Bank.

Koehler, however, says that everything is on track and that the Cascade investment and debt financing should close in a timely manner. Pacific Ethanol plans to use the proceeds to construct a new $65 million ethanol production plant, the first of five it plans to build on the West Coast by 2008. "We have sufficient equity to build the five plants. We use debt on a project-by-project basis," Koehler said. Pacific Ethanol will continue to look to Hudson United and Comerica, as well as other banks, for future debt financings.

Ethanol Producers Climb to New Highs
Monday April 10, 1:49 pm ET
By Lauren Villagran, AP Business Writer
Creeping Deadlines to Get Rid of Gasoline Additive Boost Producers of Ethanol Substitute


NEW YORK (AP) -- Shares of ethanol producers extended their recent rally Monday, as oil refiners continued their rush to substitute ethanol for a toxic gasoline additive before the summer driving season shifts into gear.
ADVERTISEMENT


The enthusiasm for ethanol is tied to the fate of methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE), an additive mixed into gasoline to reduce pollution. However, studies have found that MTBE to be carcinogenic if it seeps into a water source.

States are increasingly banning MBTE due to contamination concerns. Companies wishing to comply with new laws -- and worried about the potential for legal liability -- are turning to ethanol as a replacement for the additive.

According to the federal Energy Information Administration, most of the refining industry is trying to cut out the additive before the summer driving season.

That means demand for ethanol is on the climb -- as are producers' share prices.

"Ethanol is a one-for-one substitute," according to Charlie Rentschler, an analyst with New York-based investment research firm Foresight Research Solutions. "Some refiners pulled up deadline for cutting production of MTBE. I think the ethanol guys are scrambling to satisfy demand."

Ethanol producers are constructing refineries, but it can take between a year and 18 months to get a plant running, Rentschler said -- meaning demand for the additive is likely to outpace supply.

Stocks in the sector have made sharp gains since the start of the year.

Shares of Pacific Ethanol Inc. jumped $2.42, or 8.6 percent, to $30.67 in midday trading on the Nasdaq, after earlier surging to a fresh 52-week high of $31.65. Shares of grains producer Andersons Inc. climbed 41 cents to $89.38 after earlier leaping to $93.27, topping a prior 52-week peak of $89.

Both Pacific Ethanol and Andersons have seen their stocks more than double in value since Jan. 1.

Archer Daniels Midland Co. -- a major grains grower that is ramping up its ethanol operations -- saw its shares add 17 cents to $36.22 on the New York Stock Exchange. Shares of wheat processor MGP Ingredients Inc. rose 3 cents to $18.75 on the Nasdaq.

Big Oil blamed for lack of Ethanol filling stations

April 10th 2006 Posted in Ethanol
Reuters: U.S. politicians want to find out if Oil companies restrict service stations from selling gasoline made mostly from ethanol and biodiesel blended motor fuel. Currently, there are only 651 service stations out of 167,000 nationwide that sell the renewable fuels.

Illinois Governor, Rod Blagojevich, and the state’s two senators, Richard Durbin and Barack Obama, sent letters to heads of six major oil companies to find out if they have any policies or advocate any practices that prohibit or discourage the construction, installation and operation of the ethanol and biodiesel pumps at service stations.

This is obviously good news for Ethanol investors and backers. Also, last week OnStar said they will help their customers find Ethanol filling stations.

Hallo

Gute Frage. Ich persönlich bin in Pacific Ethanol long, jedoch glaube ich kaum, dass PEIX jeden Tag weitere 10 Prozent steigen wird. Meiner Meinung nach kommen in dieser oder in der nächsten Woche Gewinnmitnahmen. Bloss wie gross der Rücksetzer durch die Gewinnmitnahmen werden wird, auf die Frage weiss wohl niemand eine Antwort.

Wenn man sich den Kursverlauf ansieht, dann sieht man auch, dass es immer wieder Rücksetzer gab. Dies scheint mir jedoch normal zu sein und es ist auch für den langfristigen Verlauf gesund. Kein Papier steigt ohne Korrektur.

Mein Tipp: Wenn du mit dem Gewinn den du jetzt bei einem Verkauf erziehlst zufrieden bist, dann verkaufe. Bist du jedoch wirklich von Pacific Ethanol überzeugt und hast genug Geduld, dann behalte PEIX noch eine Weile (setz dir am Besten ein Limit). Du darfst bloss keine weiche Knie bei einem Rücksetzer bekommen. Desweiteren rate ich jedem, sich selbst ein Bild über Ethanol allgemein und PEIX zu machen. Bei jeder Entscheidung soll man sich auf jeden Fall nicht zu sehr durch Postings in Foren beeinflussen lassen


Dies ist keine Kauf- oder Verkaufsempfehlung, nur meine persönliche Meinung.

Es werden immer mehr auf Pacific Ethanol aufmerksam

Apr 10, 2006 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- Market Gainer is quickly emerging as the one stop shop for international small-cap investors looking to stay a step ahead of the markets. Today's activity on the Nasdaq exchange has brought Pacific Ethanol, Inc (PEIX) to the attention of our research team. Our goal is to create a community of international investors who consistently and effectively capitalize on the enormous gains the small-cap Canadian and American exchanges offer. Pacific Ethanol, Inc. engages in the development, production, and marketing of renewable fuels in the western United States.

Pacific Ethanol, Inc is on the verge of a record day, inching up to their 52 week high to currently trading at $31.38. The market sentiment for this company is up11%, having traded well over 1.7 million shares (at the time of publication). Something to consider is the company has not released any sort of corporate development to justify their current levels, however this does not mean the correction is not justified, it may just be a sign of things to come. Needless to say, is a company that we will be keeping a close watch on over the coming weeks.

'Part of a solution': Marin investors pump their green into 'green' companies

Keri Brenner
Marin Independent Journal

Every time he fills his gas tank, Phil Kranenburg imagines he's making things a little more "green" for the Marin environment.
Kranenburg, a San Rafael financier who serves as a College of Marin trustee, is investing in ethanol, a plant-derived fuel that now provides 5.7 percent of the gasoline mix at California's pumps. He thinks some day motorists will fill up on fuel that's 85 percent ethanol.

"People want to be part of a solution," said Kranenburg, 45, who is seeking to raise $50 million in private equity capital for his newly launched Kranenburg Fund, which includes ethanol producers in its portfolio. "Ethanol is probably one of the most interesting ways to address a range of geopolitical issues, such as dependence on foreign oil and greenhouse gases," he said.

More than half of the Kranenburg Fund is invested in Fresno-based Pacific Ethanol, a firm co-founded by former secretary of state Bill Jones. Jones said ethanol addresses the need to diversify fuel sources in the state and the nation, as well as holding the potential to create jobs and boost the economy.

Pacific Ethanol (PEIX) stock has skyrocketed in recent months, climbing past $25 this week. Its 52-week low was $7. Money Magazine calls it a "top performing stock."

"The whole environmental sensitivity in the corporate world is greater than it was 25 years ago," said Jones, whose company plans to open its first ethanol refinery in Madera later this year at a cost of $55 million to $60 million. "The whole corporate consciousness now is to make sure you're a good corporate citizen and protect the environment - and renewable fuels comes out on top of that."

Jones said sophisticated investors such as Microsoft's Bill Gates and traditionally oil-dependent companies are on board. Gates' private investment firm Cascade Investment has signed a letter of intent to invest $84 million by the middle of this month in Pacific Ethanol.

At Kranenburg's urging, Chevron Corp., General Motors, the state of California and Pacific Ethanol formed a consortium in January to set the stage for making and distributing fuel, cars and gas pumps that use 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent gasoline, a mix known as E85.

"Now is a great opportunity to get creative on a number of industries that relate to energy," said Kranenburg, of the accounting and investment firm Kranenburg Capital Management LLC in San Rafael.

Other Marin financiers also are looking at investing in "green" companies and organic or natural products. Investment banker Peter Holbrook of San Rafael-based Holbrook & Co. says businesses that make environmental sense are profitable.

"There's a six-month waiting list for the Toyota Prius (hybrid)," said Holbrook, 37, a Fairfax resident. "Look at the success of Whole Foods - it used to be seen as flaky or granola, but now organic products are fashionable, even a luxury item."

Holbrook's first venture into "green" or sustainable investing was in 2004, when he helped Organic Bouquet Inc., a Mill Valley-based supplier of pesticide-free flowers, raise $2.8 million.

In recent months, he has been working on a $2.5 million deal for Under the Canopy, an organic fibers clothing company.

In March, he was at the Anaheim Convention Center for the Natural Products Expo West trade show. A former Wall Street investment banker, Holbrook said his move toward sustainable investing with "green" companies is more in line with his inner nature.

"I'm excited from both a financial perspective and from a spiritual perspective," Holbrook said.

The ethanol produced by Pacific Ethanol is derived from corn grown in the Midwest. After the ethanol is extracted, a byproduct of wet distiller's grain can be given to cows for feed, said Jones, who co-founded Pacific Ethanol with his son-in-law after leaving the secretary of state's post in 2003 following nine years in office.

"We have one of the largest dairy sheds in the world here in the Central Valley," Jones said. "Most people think they should have ethanol plants in the Midwest because that's where the corn is, but the cheaper model is to send the corn, the jobs, the tax revenues all here to California so we get all the benefits."

Ethanol also can be made from grasses and wood chips, known as cellulosic ethanol, or sugar, as has been done in Brazil.

Pacific Ethanol, which went public a year ago, seems to be gaining ground. The company, which trades on the Nasdaq stock exchange under the ticker PEIX, had revenues of $100 million last year, Kranenburg said.

All is not perfect, however, in the rise of the fledgling U.S. ethanol industry. Last month, some observers said demand this summer could outstrip supply, cutting the overall amount of motor fuel available and thus pushing gasoline prices higher.

The extra demand is expected once U.S. refiners phase out the use of a petrochemical called methyl tertiary-butyl ether, or MTBE, that reduces tailpipe emissions. MTBE allows gasoline to burn more completely, and thus more cleanly, but carries public health risks.

Ethanol, which Jones claims has already made the state's air cleaner since it was added to California gasoline about a year and a half ago, would take the place of MTBE if producers can make enough. More than 30 ethanol plants - including Pacific Ethanol's - are under construction across the nation.

Kranenburg likes to fill up at Marin's Valero gas stations in Marinwood or Terra Linda because he thinks their gasoline has a slightly higher ethanol content. Gasoline in California is allowed to contain up to 10 percent ethanol, and most cars can handle that without problems.

New cars can be easily converted to use the 85-percent ethanol, but currently, no gas stations in California are equipped to pump it.

"Companies are making energy cleaner and more efficiently now," Kranenburg said. "We need to do it now - there's that sense of urgency."

Mal beiläufig etwas zu einem anderen Bio Ethanol Wert:

Ich habe mir mal die Marktkapitalisierungen und Beteiligungen sowie die ausstehenden Aktien von Greenshift, Veridium und Inseq angesehen.

Demnach sieht es wie folgt aus:


Veridium:
Gem. letztem Aktionärsnewsletter ausstehende Aktien: 225 Mio. Aktien
Kurs: 0,132 USD
Marktkapitalisierung: 29,7 Mio. USD
Anteil/Beteiligung Greenshift: 70%

Beteiligung von Greenshift an Veridium ist somit 20,8 Mio USD wert!

Inseq:
Ausstehende Aktien gem. Stockhouse u. Comdirect: 3,887 Mrd.
Kurs: 0,0054 USD
Marktkapitalisierung: 20,98 Mio. USD
Anteil/Beteiligung Greenshift: 80%

Beteiligung von Greenshift an Veridium ist somit 16,78 Mio USD wert!


Greenshift:
Ausstehende Aktien gem. Yahoo u. Greenshift Homepage 107,1 Mio
Kurs: 0,216 USD
Marktkapitalisierung: 23,13 Mio USD!

Wert Beteiligung Veridium: 20,8 Mio USD
Wert Beteiligung Inseq: 16,78 Mio USD
Gesamt 37,58 Mio. USD

Die beiden Beteiliungen sind somit deutlich mehr wert als Greenshift!!!! Umgerechnet müsste Greenshift auf 0,35 USD (=0,289 EUR) steigen, damit die die Unternehmen pari bewerten wären.
Greenshift ist also absolut unterbewertet!!!!!

Und die weiteren umfangreichen und aussichtsreichen Beteiligungen von Greenshift sind umsonst! Kurs/Chance Verhältnis von Greenshift ist somit sehr gut! Ein klarer Kauf auf diesem Niveau und nach unten sehr gut abgesichert. Positiv ist auch noch das ein Großteil der Greenshift Aktien in festen Händen liegt! M.M. sollten auch bald wieder News von einem der drei Unternehmen kommen, bisher wurde noch nichts im April veröffentlicht.

Insgesamt ist der Bio Ethanol Sektor erst richtig im kommen, begünstigt durch den hohen Ölpreis. Das was wir jetzt sehen ist nur der Anfang eines neuen Megatrends. Fast alle Bio Ethanol Aktien sind am Donnerstag schön in den USA gestiegen. Das Interesse der Anleger ist weiter sehr hoch. Inseq hat am Donnerstag einen neuen eigenen Rekord aufgestellt. Über 1 Mrd. Aktien (=1/4 der gesamten Aktien!!) wurden gehandelt!!!

Charttechnisch ist bei allen drei Werten auch alles im Lot.
Pessimismus ist auch genügend im Markt. Schon am Dienstag haben viele geschrieben, dass es das nach dem starken Anstieg vom Montag war. Die Werte steigen jeden Tag weiter und das unter sehr hohen Umsätzen. Also: Klarer Strong Buy für den gesamten Bereich und m.M. insbesondere für Greenshift - wegen den Umfangreichen Beteiligungen und dem sehr guten Chance/Risiko-Verhältnis. Könnte die nächste CMGI bzw. Globex Mining für "grüne" Aktien werden!

Bei dieser "tiny $2.50 ethanol company" handelt es sich um OTD 02Diesel





Today's Wall Street Journal says it all:



Bullish? You bet.

Every ethanol stock we own is up substantially. One cellulose company... a stock I initiated a trade on 7 weeks ago... has gone from our buy price of $5.09 to over $13 a couple days ago.

But I just found my latest blockbuster. It's a tiny $2.50 ethanol company that was tapped by the Pentagon to help develop a new fuel source for the US military. And this is something the US military simply isn't doing to help the environment. They are bound by an Executive Order to make the switch.

Here's the story...

It's called Executive Order 13149, and it was enacted on April 21, 2000.

Here's what E.O. 13149 says:



Now here's where it gets really interesting.

The US military consumes in excess of 400,000 barrels of oil every single day. Every year the military eats up 146 million barrels of crude.

Let me put it another way: If the US Department of Defense were its own nation, it would rank 33rd in the world in terms of oil consumption... that's more than Greece, Switzerland, Portugal, Philippines, Chile, Syria, Ireland, Norway and Finland.

That's why it's imperative...No... in fact it's vital to US national security that the American military diversify its fuel consumption.

So to comply with E.O. 13149, the US military has to find a renewable fuel source to replace 29.2 million barrels of oil per year.

That's massive. And the US military has to do it fast.

If you read the last sentence of PART 2 GOALS, the military should already have complied with E.O. 13149.

But because of Iraq and the never-ending War on Terror, the Pentagon is playing catch-up. That's why they just inked a deal with this tiny ethanol company.

Now I can go on and on about this tiny ethanol company. In fact, I'm putting together a much larger report on the company, its new fuel, and the opportunities for it. I expect to have it completed for market consumption in about a week or 2.

But that shouldn't stop you from owning the stock right now.

Bottom line, I don't want you to miss out on anymore profits. Our first trade in the Green Trader was a grand slam.

We purchased an ethanol upstart on February 23 for just $5.09 share. Today, that stock hit a record high of $13.67 a share. Take a look:

Die Rede ist natürlich von XTHN



Think about that... traders who got in early are sitting on profits of 169% in just seven weeks.

The $2.50 ethanol stock I'm recommending now to my traders has that kind of potential. I mean, it has the potential to break $10 a share by this summer when gasoline and oil prices are sure to spike.

Profiting From Energy Independence

By John Bradshaw Layfield
TheStreet.com Contributor
4/15/2006 11:05 AM EDT


When President Bush claimed we were addicted to oil, alternative energy stocks surged, ethanol in particular.

The only two pure plays on ethanol are Pacific Ethanol (PEIX) and Xethanol (XTHN), which are each up almost threefold since the beginning of the year. Meanwhile, ADM (ADM) is up almost 50%, and Deere (DE) is up 20% as a beneficiary of farmers having more money. If you are a regular reader of mine, you will note that I was way ahead of the government and the market on these issues.

Ethanol is the new dot.com, but unlike those Internet stocks that crashed and burned at the beginning of the decade, ethanol will have earnings that will live up to the hype. The government has mandated its use, and America is embracing it. In 2006 there will be approximately 6.3 billion gallons of ethanol produced. The President has required that ethanol deliver 7.5 billion gallons for consumption by 2012. By 2025, to reduce foreign imports by 75%, America would have to produce 60 billion gallons of ethanol, which would obviously require more than corn-based ethanol.

There's another twist, too. The gasoline additive MTBE has been shown to be toxic in drinking water and is to be replaced by ethanol on May 5. This has quickly caused us to have an ethanol shortage in our country. To replace MTBE, ethanol production will need to be beefed up by 130,000 barrels per day, a 50% increase over current levels.

All of this explains why shares of Pacific Ethanol and Xethanol have almost tripled since the beginning of the year.

My favorite is Xethanol, whose biomass plant in Iowa announced it had achieved a level of 500,000 gallons per month in January and has announced plans to double that capacity.

The thing that made me want to invest in Xethanol was its cellulose ethanol technology, of which the President plans to spend $150 million in 2007 to promote. The President wants cellulose ethanol to be price-competitive by 2012, but Xethanol says it can do it by 2007.

Cellulose ethanol is derived from paper mills' waste. In the past, paper mills would take this to landfills. But Xethanol will build its plants near the mills and make ethanol from their waste, which Xethanol will get on the cheap and could even get paid to take.

This pleases everyone. No more waste goes to landfills. No big waste-shipping bills for the paper mills. And Xethanol gets to make ethanol without having to worry about corn or corn prices. And we make Americans rich in the process, instead of having to buy oil from countries that don't like us. I believe this is a perfect scenario.

Xethanol just raised $46 million to expand its presence on the East Coast and just hired Christopher Dillow to explore penetration along the West Coast, where almost all of the 900 million gallons of ethanol used in California in 2004 were imported by rail or ship. California currently only hosts about 8 million gallons of production, yet accounts for one-third of ethanol consumption.

Meanwhile, The company that is currently answering California's ethanol shortage is Pacific Ethanol, which has a plant currently under construction in Madera County, and has four more plants coming online on the West Coast. Pacific Ethanol just had $84 million invested by Bill Gates' investment arm Cascade Investment LLC. Pacific Ethanol recently delayed its annual report to record this money and an additional $34 million dollars.

Both of these companies are the only pure plays on ethanol, though I would imagine others will try to take advantage of the capital available in the public markets. However, it will be hard to catch up to these two. I plan on holding Xethanol for the foreseeable future. Everything has aligned just right for ethanol.
Ethanol receives a 51 cent per gallons tax incentive, which will most likely be phased out. That means taxpayer money will no longer be going to farmers in the version of subsidies.

Ethanol will remain cheaper than gasoline as long as oil stays above $50 a barrel and corn below $3 a bushel. Four states have mandated 10% ethanol in all their gasoline, and many more have plans to follow. At 7.5 billion gallons mandated by 2012, this is still just 5% of the current 140 billion gallons of gasoline used nationally. Brazil, which started an aggressive (and highly successful) alternative energy fuel program amid the oil price shock of the 1970s, has a mandate of 25%. The U.S. is just beginning to see the ethanol boom.


During the 1974 Arab oil embargo, Brazil's government did something for long-term stability. Ours did not. We are now being forced to be reactive instead of proactive, a bad place to be. However, as investors, we can make a wheelbarrow full of cash on our government's unfortunate past ineptness.

The only knock is that a 10% blend of ethanol in gasoline results in a 2% to 3% reduction in fuel efficiency, though this number has been challenged. This means I may have to fill up the 528 horsepower truck I have in Texas more often. I can live with that to be energy independent.

XTHN Xethanol

Ich hätte die Gaps der letzten 10 Tage gerne geschlossen gesehen, aber ich glaube nicht daran, dass XTHN den Gefallen tun wird.

Vom Chart her ist der Wert nicht mehr soo glühend heiß, wenngleich es ihm gut täte, ein wenig weiter zu fallen. Man sieht, dass das Volumen der letzten Handelstage ebenfalls gefallen ist.

Pacific Ethanol leases 25 acres at Port
Company hopes to break ground this summer

By Dean Brickey
of the East Oregonian

BOARDMAN — Port of Morrow commissioners leased 25 acres to one alternative energy company Wednesday and extended a lease option for another.

Commissioners unanimously approved a 20-year lease with Pacific Ethanol Columbia of Portland. The company hopes to break ground this summer on a $35 million to $50 million plant that is expected to produce 30-35 million gallons of ethanol per year from corn and employ 25-40 workers.

Ethanol is grain alcohol and is used as a fuel and fuel additive. The company intends to create the fuel from agricultural products or byproducts. It also expects to market livestock feed and carbon dioxide.

“We’re excited they’ve moved this project forward,” said Paul Koehler, the company’s vice president of business development. “We’re pleased to be working with the Port of Morrow.”

Terms of the lease call for Pacific Ethanol to pay the port $250 per acre — or $6,250 — per month. Upon Koehler’s request, however, commissioners cut the lease payments in half for the first year while the plant is under construction. Koehler said he doesn’t expect the plant to begin operating until about June 2007.

“We’re not making revenue during that period,” he said of the first year.

Carla McLane, Morrow County planning director, said today the plant is an outright use in the industrial park, but her department must review the company’s plans for compliance with the county’s zoning ordinance before issuing permits.

McLane said she signed a land use compatibility statement for Pacific Ethanol this week, which relates to permits the state Department of Environmental Quality requires.

Adam Bless of the Oregon Department of Energy said in March Pacific Ethanol was the first company to file a notice of intent to apply for an ethanol site certificate in Oregon. Two others have obtained exemptions from the process, however, including Oregon Ethanol, which also plans to build at the Port of Morrow.

Also attending Wednesday’s meeting was Howard Dunn of Inland Energy, who received a 90-day extension on his company’s lease option on 10-22 acres in the port’s industrial park. Dunn said his company also hopes to break ground this year on a biodiesel plant that would produce up to 5 million gallons per year from corn and soybeans. He said the site is permitted and the company already has agreements from feedstock suppliers and customers.

“We’re just hoping we don’t need the rail before they finish the tracks,” he said.

Port Engineer Ron McKinnis reported Union Pacific Railroad does not intend to connect the port’s new rail loop to the main railroad line until June.

In other business, commissioners:

• Approved a $8,942 change order for engineering services on a new taxiway project at the Boardman Airport because the State Historic Preservation Office and the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation require a cultural resource survey.

• Amended its agreement with Oregon International Speedway to include property north of Interstate 84 and south of the Union Pacific Railroad. Lisa Mittelsdorf, the port’s economic developer, said the port intends to buy the property from R.D. Offutt and sell it to the developers of the proposed speedway.

• Discussed providing about 3.2 acres to the Boardman Rural Fire Protection District for a new fire station at the southeast corner of Columbia Avenue and Olson Road. Fire Chief Marc Rogelstad said he believes with the industrial growth planned at the port, the district will need a fire station closer to port operations.

“We’re trying to see how we can improve fire protection for the city and the port,” he said.

Annual Report


ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report. This report and our consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements contain forward-looking statements, which generally include the plans and objectives of management for future operations, including plans and objectives relating to our future economic performance and our current beliefs regarding revenues we might generate and profits we might earn if we are successful in implementing our business strategies. The forward-looking statements and associated risks may include, relate to or be qualified by other important factors, including, without limitation:

o the projected growth or contraction in the ethanol market in which we operate;
o fluctuations in the market price of ethanol;
o our business strategy for expanding, maintaining or contracting our presence in this market;
o our ability to obtain the necessary financing to complete construction of our planned ethanol production facilities other than our facility in Madera County, California;
o anticipated trends in our financial condition and results of operations; and
o our ability to distinguish ourselves from our current and future competitors.

We do not undertake to update, revise or correct any forward-looking statements.

Any of the factors described above or in the "Risk Factors" section below could cause our financial results, including our net income or loss or growth in net income or loss to differ materially from prior results, which in turn could, among other things, cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially.

OVERVIEW

Our primary goal is to become a leader in the production, marketing and sale of ethanol and other renewable fuels in the Western United States.

Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Kinergy Marketing, LLC, or Kinergy, we are currently engaged in the business of marketing ethanol in the Western United States. We provide transportation, storage and delivery of ethanol through third-party service providers. We sell ethanol primarily in California, Nevada, Arizona, Washington and Oregon and have extensive customer relationships throughout the Western United States and extensive supplier relationships throughout the Western and Midwestern United States. We do not currently produce any ethanol that we sell. Until we commence the production of ethanol, if at all, we expect our operations to consist primarily of the marketing and sale of ethanol produced by third-parties. Accordingly, we expect that unless and until we complete the construction of our initial ethanol production facility in Madera County our consolidated net sales will consist solely of net sales generated by Kinergy. We anticipate that our net sales will grow in the long-term as demand for ethanol increases and as a result of our marketing agreements with third-party ethanol producers.

We believe that we have a competitive advantage due to the market niche that we have developed by supplying ethanol to customers in several major metropolitan and rural markets in California and other Western states. We also believe that the experience of our management over the past two decades and the operations Kinergy has conducted over the past five years have enabled us to establish valuable relationships in the ethanol marketing industry and understand the business of marketing ethanol.

Through Pacific Ethanol Madera, LLC, or PEI Madera, a second-tier subsidiary of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Pacific Ethanol California, Inc., or PEI California, we are constructing an ethanol production facility in Madera County to begin the production and sale of ethanol and its co-products. In April 2006, we secured all the necessary financing to complete construction of this facility. See "Preferred Stock Financing" and "Debt Financing." We also intend to construct or otherwise acquire additional ethanol production facilities as financing resources and business prospects make the construction or acquisition of these facilities advisable.

Our wholly-owned subsidiary, ReEnergy, LLC, or ReEnergy, does not presently have any significant business operations or plans. ReEnergy previously held an option to acquire real property in Visalia, California, on which we intended to build an ethanol production facility. Recently, we decided not to proceed with our initial plans to build a facility on the Visalia site and, as a result, we allowed the option to expire on December 15, 2005 without exercising our right to purchase the land and we are in the process of dissolving ReEnergy. We have secured an option to acquire an additional parcel of real property on which we may construct an additional ethanol production facility.

Currently, ethanol represents only up to 3% of the total annual gasoline supply in the United States. We believe that the ethanol industry has substantial room to grow to reach what we estimate is an achievable level of at least 10% of the total annual gasoline supply in the United States. An increase in the demand for ethanol from California's current level of 5.7% to at least 10% of total annual gasoline supply would result in demand for approximately 700 million additional gallons of ethanol, representing an increase in annual demand in California of approximately 75%. An additional 700 million gallons of ethanol would represent an increase in annual demand of approximately 18% for the entire United States.

Kinergy has two principal methods of conducting its ethanol marketing and sales activities: direct sales and inventory sales. Kinergy's first method of marketing and selling ethanol involves direct sales through which suppliers deliver ethanol directly via rail to Kinergy's customers. For direct sales, Kinergy typically matches ethanol purchase and sale contracts of like quantities and delivery periods. These back-to-back direct sales typically involve no price risks to Kinergy that otherwise may result from fluctuations in the market price of ethanol. Kinergy's second method of marketing and selling ethanol involves truck deliveries from inventory purchased by Kinergy in advance. For inventory sales, as with direct sales, Kinergy typically matches ethanol purchase and sale contracts of like quantities. However, timing differences do exist and consequently, a back-to-back inventory sale may lag by up to two or more weeks. This time lag results from inventory transit and turnover times. As a result, Kinergy may supply ethanol under new inventory sales contracts from existing inventory. These back-to-back inventory sales therefore involve some price risks to Kinergy resulting from potential fluctuations in the market price of ethanol.

We believe that the only consistent price risk to Kinergy currently is inventory risk. Management seeks to optimize transitions to new inventory sales contracts and reduce the effects of declining ethanol prices by managing inventory as carefully as possible to decrease inventory levels in anticipation of declining ethanol prices. In addition, management seeks to increase inventory levels in anticipation of rising ethanol prices. Because Kinergy decreases inventory levels in anticipation of declining ethanol prices and increases inventory levels in anticipation of rising ethanol prices, it is subject to the risk of ethanol prices moving in unanticipated directions, which could result in declining or even negative gross profit margins over certain periods of time, but also enables Kinergy to potentially benefit from above-normal gross profit margins.

Over the past few years, the market price of ethanol has experienced significant fluctuations. More recently, the price of ethanol declined by approximately 25% from its 2004 average price per gallon in five months from January 2005 through May 2005 and reversed this decline and increased to approximately 55% above its 2004 average price per gallon in four months from June 2005 through September 2005. Since September 2005, the price of ethanol has generally trended downward and the average price of ethanol during October 2005 and through December 2005 was approximately 24% above its 2004 average price per gallon. We believe that the market price of ethanol will, for the foreseeable future, continue to experience significant fluctuations which may cause our future results of operations to fluctuate significantly. As a result, our historical results of operations may not be predictive of our future results of operations.

Historically, Kinergy's gross profit margins have averaged between 2.0% and 4.4%. Kinergy's gross profit margins in 2005 and 2004 were 3.6% and 3.9%, respectively. We believe that Kinergy's future gross profit margins may be lower than historical levels for two principal reasons. First, increased competition in the ethanol market may reduce margins. Second, Kinergy may, in some cases, engage in direct sale arrangements that typically result in lower gross margins. Historically, Kinergy's sales were comprised to a greater degree of inventory sales that often involved the buying and selling of ethanol based on anticipated trends in the market price of ethanol. These inventory sales represented higher-risk positions but enabled Kinergy to achieve higher margin levels, as compared to direct sales, as a result of correctly anticipating fluctuations in the market price of ethanol. As a result of highly-volatile ethanol prices, we are unable to estimate Kinergy's future gross profit margins from inventory sales. However, we believe that over longer periods of up to a year or more, our gross profit margin from inventory sales is unlikely to exceed our historic high average gross profit margin of 4.4%.

If we are able to complete our ethanol production facility in Madera County and commence producing ethanol, we expect our gross profit margins for ethanol that we produce to be substantially higher than our gross profit margins for Kinergy's direct sales and inventory sales activities. However, any gross profits that we realize from the production of ethanol will be highly dependent upon the prevailing market price of ethanol at the time of sale. Moreover, in light of the recent and expected future volatility in the price of ethanol, we are now, and expect for the foreseeable future to be, unable to estimate our gross profit margins resulting from the sale of ethanol that we may produce.

Kinergy's gross profit margin declined by 56% from 3.9% in 2004 to 1.7% in the first quarter of 2005, declined further by 82% from 3.9% in 2004 to 0.7% in the second quarter of 2005 and increased by 59% from 3.9% in 2004 to 6.2% in the third quarter of 2005 and decreased by 6.2% from 3.9% in 2004 to 3.7% in the fourth quarter of 2005. Kinergy's gross profit margin for 2005 declined by 7.8% from 3.9% in 2004 to 3.6% in 2005. Kinergy's gross profit margin in the first quarter of 2005 is generally reflective of the contracted margins for that period. The decline in Kinergy's gross profit margin in the second quarter of 2005 resulted primarily from the transition from inventory sales contracts ending in the first quarter of 2005 to new inventory sales contracts beginning in the second quarter of 2005 during a period of rapidly declining market prices. As discussed above, because of the time lag in delivering ethanol under new inventory sales contracts, Kinergy sold ethanol under these contracts from existing inventory that was purchased at levels higher than the prevailing market price at the time of sale. The increase in Kinergy's gross profit margin in the third quarter of 2005 is generally reflective of opportunistic buying and selling during a period of rapidly increasing market prices. The decrease in Kinergy's gross profit margin in the fourth quarter of 2005 resulted primarily from the transition to new sales contracts beginning in the fourth quarter of 2005 at lower market prices. As noted above, the price of ethanol declined during the first and second quarters of 2005 by approximately 25% from its 2004 average price per gallon in five months from January 2005 through May 2005 and reversed this decline and increased during the third quarter of 2005 to approximately 55% above its 2004 average price per gallon in four months from June 2005 through September 2005. Since September 2005, the price of ethanol has generally trended downward and the average price of ethanol for the fourth quarter of 2005 was approximately 24% above its 2004 average price per gallon.

Management correctly anticipated a softening in the price of ethanol in early 2005, but neither management nor, we believe, the ethanol industry as a whole, anticipated the speed and the extent of the decline in the price of ethanol from January 2005 through May 2005. As a result, Kinergy was forced to sell some ethanol at negative gross profit levels following the rapid and extensive decline in the price of ethanol. In the second quarter of 2005, and before ethanol prices increased to levels significantly higher than their recent lows, Kinergy sold much of this ethanol inventory that was acquired at prices higher than those prevailing at the time of sale. Accordingly, despite the general increase in ethanol prices during the second quarter of 2005, this inventory and these sales still had the effect of depressing Kinergy's gross profit margin to 0.7% for the entire second quarter of 2005 and to 0.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2005. However, as a result of the substantial increase in the price of ethanol during the third quarter of 2005, and the opportunistic buying and selling of ethanol during that period, Kinergy's gross profit margin increased to 6.2% for the third quarter of 2005, a level significantly higher than our gross profit margins for either the first or second quarters of 2005. As noted above, our results in the third quarter of 2005, together with our results in the fourth quarter of 2005, raised Kinergy's gross profit margin to 3.6% for year ended December 31, 2005.

Management decided to maintain net long ethanol positions in the first and second quarters of 2005 as a result of a confluence of factors, including its expectation of increased prices of gasoline and petroleum and anticipated favorable federal legislation that we expected would increase the demand for and price of ethanol over the short- and longer-terms. We believe that these factors were, however, outweighed by a sudden but short-lived excess of ethanol supplied to the market by a number of new ethanol production facilities. We believe that the sudden and short-lived excess of ethanol supplied to the market coupled with higher market-wide inventory levels caused the rapid and steep decline in the price of ethanol. Following its rapid decline during January 2005 through May 2005, the price of ethanol reversed and subsequently increased to unprecedented high levels from June 2005 through September 2005. Though prices showed a moderate downward trend in the fourth quarter of 2005, we believe that the year's overall trend of increasing ethanol prices reflects the market's relatively quick absorption of the additional supply of ethanol that was, and that continues to be, supplied to the market by new ethanol production facilities.

SHARE EXCHANGE TRANSACTION

On March 23, 2005, we completed a share exchange transaction, or the Share Exchange Transaction, with the shareholders of PEI California, and the holders of the membership interests of each of Kinergy and ReEnergy, pursuant to which we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of PEI California and all of the outstanding membership interests of each of Kinergy and ReEnergy. Immediately prior to the consummation of the share exchange, our predecessor, Accessity Corp., or Accessity, reincorporated in the State of Delaware under the name "Pacific Ethanol, Inc." through a merger of Accessity with and into its then-wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary named Pacific Ethanol, Inc., which was formed for the purpose of effecting the reincorporation. We are the surviving entity resulting from the reincorporation merger and Kinergy, PEI California and ReEnergy are three of our wholly-owned subsidiaries.

The Share Exchange Transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition whereby PEI California is deemed to be the accounting acquiror. As a result, our results of operations for 2004 consist of the operations of PEI California only. We have consolidated the results of PEI California, Kinergy and ReEnergy beginning March 23, 2005, the date of the Share Exchange Transaction. Accordingly, our results of operations for 2005 consist of the operations of PEI California for the entire 12-month period and the operations of Kinergy and ReEnergy from March 23, 2005 through December 31, 2005. We expect that, until we complete construction of our ethanol production facility in Madera County, our operations will consist solely of operations conducted by Kinergy.

In connection with the Share Exchange Transaction, we issued an aggregate of 20,610,987 shares of common stock to the shareholders of PEI California, 3,875,000 shares of common stock to the limited liability company member of Kinergy and an aggregate of 125,000 shares of common stock to the limited liability company members of ReEnergy. In addition, holders of options and warrants to acquire an aggregate of 3,157,587 shares of common stock of PEI California were, following the consummation of the Share Exchange Transaction, deemed to hold warrants to acquire an equal number of our shares of common stock. Also, a holder of a promissory note, a portion of which was convertible into an aggregate of 664,879 shares of common stock of PEI California was, following the consummation of the Share Exchange Transaction, entitled to convert the note into an equal number of shares of our common stock.

The following table summarizes the unaudited assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the Share Exchange Transaction:

The purchase price represented a significant premium over the recorded net worth of the acquired entities' assets. In deciding to pay this premium, we considered various factors, including the value of Kinergy's trade name, Kinergy's extensive market presence and history, Kinergy's industry knowledge and expertise, Kinergy's extensive customer relationships and expected synergies with Kinergy's business and assets and our planned entry into the ethanol production business.

Prior to the Share Exchange Transaction, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Sentaur Corp., Accessity was in the business of providing medical billing recovery services for hospitals. Sentaur Corp.'s services were designed to help hospitals recoup discounts improperly taken by insurance companies and other institutional payors of medical treatments. In addition, through its wholly-owned subsidiary DriverShield CRM Corp., Accessity was in the business of providing internet-based vehicle repair management services, including collision and general repair programs, estimating and auditing services and vehicle rentals for insurance companies and affinity group members.

COMMON STOCK FINANCING

On March 23, 2005, prior to the consummation of the Share Exchange Transaction, PEI California issued to 63 accredited investors in a private offering an aggregate of 7,000,000 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $3.00 per share, two-year investor warrants to purchase 1,400,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share and two-year investor warrants to purchase 700,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, for total gross proceeds of approximately $21,000,000. PEI California paid cash placement agent fees and expenses of approximately $1,850,400 and issued five-year placement agent warrants to purchase 678,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share in connection with the offering. Additional costs related to the financing include legal, accounting and consulting fees that totaled approximately $274,415.

We were obligated under a registration rights agreement, or Registration Rights Agreement, related to the above financing to file, on the 151st day following March 23, 2005, a Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the Commission, registering for resale shares of common stock, and shares of common stock underlying investor warrants and certain of the placement agent warrants, issued in connection with the private offering. If
(i) we did not file the Registration Statement within the time period prescribed, or (ii) we failed to file with the Commission a request for acceleration in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, within five trading days of the date that we are notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be "reviewed," or is not subject to further review, or (iii) the Registration Statement filed or required to be filed under the Registration Rights Agreement was not declared effective by the Commission on or before November 3, 2005, or (iv) after the Registration Statement is first declared effective by the Commission, it ceases for any reason to remain continuously effective as to all securities registered thereunder, or the holders of such securities are not permitted to utilize the prospectus contained in the Registration Statement to resell such securities, for more than an aggregate of 45 trading days during any 12-month period (which need not be consecutive trading days) (any such failure or breach being referred to as an "Event," and for purposes of clause (i) or (iii) the date on which such Event occurs, or for purposes of clause (ii) the date on which such five-trading day period is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (iv) the date on which such 45-trading day-period is exceeded being referred to as "Event Date"), then in addition to any other rights the holders of such securities may have under the Registration Statement or under applicable law, then, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, we are required to pay to each such holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 2.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such holder pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement relating to such securities then held by such holder. If we fail to pay any partial liquidated damages in full within seven days after the date payable, we are required to pay interest thereon at a rate of 18% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to such holder, accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all .

Pacific Ethanol, Inc. Completes $84 Million Equity Investment by Cascade Investment, L.L.C. and $34 Million Debt Financing by Hudson United Bank and Comerica Bank, and Files 10-KSB
Monday April 17, 9:37 am ET


FRESNO, Calif., April 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Pacific Ethanol, Inc. (Nasdaq: PEIX - News) announced today that it has completed the offering and sale of 5,250,000 shares of Series A Cumulative Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock for $84 million to Cascade Investment, L.L.C. The shares of preferred stock are convertible into shares of common stock at an initial conversion ratio of two shares of common stock for each share of preferred stock which, if converted immediately, would result in the issuance of 10,500,000 shares of common stock. Pacific Ethanol also announced today that it has completed a debt financing for up to a total of approximately $34 million with Hudson United Bank, a division of TD BankNorth, and Comerica Bank.
A portion of the proceeds from the preferred stock offering and all of the proceeds from the debt financing will be used to complete construction of Pacific Ethanol's ethanol production plant in Madera County, California. This plant is currently under construction and is scheduled to be completed and begin operations in the fourth quarter of 2006. The remaining portion of the proceeds from the preferred stock offering will be used to pay a portion of the costs of construction of other ethanol plants on the West Coast. Pacific Ethanol has announced plans to construct and operate five ethanol plants in the Western United States by the end of 2008 with an expected combined installed annual ethanol capacity of at least 200 million gallons.

"Closing these debt and equity financings solidifies our near term growth strategy of building five ethanol plants on the West Coast," said Neil Koehler, Pacific Ethanol's CEO. "We are honored to partner with a strong strategic investor like Cascade Investment and established lenders like Hudson United Bank and Comerica Bank," added Koehler.

Pacific Ethanol also announced today that it has filed its Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005. A copy of the Form 10-KSB may be found on the Securities and Exchange Commission's website at www.sec.gov and on the Company's website at www.pacificethanol.net.

About Pacific Ethanol, Inc.

das wär nun auch geschafft!!!

der rückschlag wegen der meldung, dass sich die quartalszahlen und der auslieferung der anteile an billy boys cascade ist nun mehr als wieder aufgeholt.

billy boy ist nun 10,5 mio anteile an peix reicher.
er hat somit aus 84 mio $, mit dem heutigen kurs (33$), 350 mio $ gemacht!!!

gut für alle peix-anteilseigner!!! seit dem einstieg von billy boy (was ja einem ritterschlag gleichkommt) konnten wir eine verdreifachung verfolgen.

mit diesen nachrichten sind wieder alle unsicherheiten raus!!! und es könnte weiter steigen.

das beste an den nachrichten ist, und nur das interessiert die börse, es sind weitere raffinerien geplant!!!

schliesslich haben wir einen zukunftswert in unserem depot!!!

die quartalszahlen werden erst ab 2007 eine rolle spielen!!!
bis dann zählt nur!!! das nötige geld zu haben um neue raffinerien zu bauen!!!

!!!es gibt nur 1 risiko!!!: zu hohe verschuldung und keine banken/ institutionelle die kapital geben!!!

2007 wissen wir mehr!!! totalverlust oder highflyer für lange zeit!!!

beispiel highflyer: solarworld
beispiel totalverlust: calpine

seht ihr weiter risiken???

PEIX announced completion of the offering and sale of 5.25 million shares of Series A Cumulative Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock for $84 million to Cascade Investment.

The company stated that the preferred shares are convertible into shares of common stock at an initial conversion ratio of two shares of common stock for each share of preferred stock, which, if converted immediately, would result in the issuance of 10.5 million common shares.

Pacific Ethanol also revealed completion of a debt financing for up to a total of about $34 million with Hudson United Bank, a division of TD BankNorth, and Comerica Bank.

The company would use a portion of the proceeds from the preferred stock offering and all of the proceeds from the debt financing to complete construction of Pacific Ethanol's ethanol production plant in Madera County, California.

The remaining portion of the proceeds from the preferred stock offering would be used to pay a portion of the costs of construction of other ethanol plants on the West Coast.

In Brasilien, den USA und Schweden wird der Sprit schon seit Jahren mit Ethanol gemischt, eine Forcierung wäre kaum ein Problem, zumal die Planungen für einen Ausbau der Kapazitäten schon auf Hochtouren laufen. Alleine in den USA sollen zu den bestehenden 97 Ethanolanlagen weitere 31 hinzukommen. Nach Aussagen von US-Senator Pete Dominici soll sich so der Ausstoß von Ethanol in den kommenden Jahren verdreifachen. In diesem Fall könnten die USA an Brasilien als weltweit größter Ethanol-Hersteller vorbeiziehen.

Nachfrage übersteigt Angebot
Auch finanziell würde sich der Ausbau der Kapazitäten für die Produzenten rentieren: Die Kosten, um einen Liter Ethanol herzustellen, belaufen sich in den USA auf gerade einmal 0,33 Euro. Steigt der Preis für Rohöl über die Marke von 60 Dollar/Fass, dann arbeiten die Anlagen Gewinn bringend. Um eine genügend hohe Nachfrage brauchen sich die Produzenten keine Gedanken zu machen: Seit Monaten steigt der Bedarf an Ethanol so stark, dass die Anbieter mit der Herstellung nicht mehr hinterherkommen. Der Renewable Fuels Association (Branchenverband) zufolge betrug die Tagesproduktion im November 275.000 Barrel Ethanol, der Verbrauch lag mit 297.000 Barrel deutlich darüber. Einer der größeren Profiteure der neuen staatlichen Energiestrategie ist Pacific Ethanol. Die Aktie hat sich seit Mitte Januar in der Spitze verdoppelt. Die Rallye hat aber noch einen weiteren Grund: Microsoft-Gründer Bill Gates hält einen Anteil von 27 Prozent an Pacific Ethanol. Der Konzern will allein bis 2008 fünf Ethanolanlagen bauen, eine davon im strategisch wichtigen San Joaquin Valley (Kalifornien). Die planmäßige Expansion vorausgesetzt, rechnen Analysten schon für 2007 mit einem Gewinn pro Aktie von 0,18 Dollar, 2008 sollen sogar schon 0,91 Dollar pro Aktie verdient werden. Die Bewertung der Aktien erscheint somit nicht zu hoch. Dennoch ist Pacific Ethanol auf dem aktuellen Kursniveau nur etwas für langfristig agierende und risikobewusste Anleger.

ein post aus amerika:

PEIX PACIFIC ETHANOL INC Daily Commentary

Our system posted a SELL-IF today. The previous BUY recommendation was issued on 04.17.2006 (1) day ago, when the stock price was 31.4800. Since then PEIX has fallen -1.21% .

Why Compromise?
Trade Smarter with Fidelity

A bearish pattern has developed and a SELL-IF alert is issued today. You will see if we erred slightly in our previous BUY signal. A confirmation in the next session will show that we have underestimated the bearish power of the market. You may realize a small loss but prevent a bigger one if you are following our guidelines. The task is now to confirm the validity of this bearish pattern. We ask your effort and time. A good starting point is to keep an eye on after-hours trading and futures trading to get preliminary hints about market direction. Related news, events, economic data, and the outlook of the world markets must be closely followed prior to confirmation session.

There are three possible cases of bearish confirmation. You have to follow the session closely to see if these cases will hold or not.

The market opens with a downward gap, signaling a bearish sentiment in the first case. Your benchmark will be the opening price. If the prices stay below the benchmark, sell your shares. Any black candlestick with a downward gap is a valid bearish confirmation criterion.

In the second case, the market opens at a level, equal to or above the previous day’s close. The benchmark is that closing price. If prices during the session stay below the benchmark, sell your shares. Any black candlestick closing below the previous day’s close is the second confirmation criterion.

If, however, in both cases, the prices during the session start going over the benchmark avoid selling.

The third case of confirmation is rarely observed. The market opens with a big upward gap suggesting a very bullish day, and the day ends with a black candlestick, but still closing above the previous day’s close. Such a day satisfies the third confirmation criterion and the closing price of the black candlestick is the benchmark.

If one of the three confirmation criteria is not fulfilled, or in case of a white candlestick or a doji on the confirmation day, the SELL-IF alert remains valid, however, without confirmation and the three confirmation criteria are then sought in the following day. The only exception is the long white candlestick. Any white candlestick following a SELL-IF alert makes the signal void and invalid.

The market looks strong on the short side as evidenced by recent price activity. If the SELL-IF is confirmed, new short selling may be considered.

hilft uns das weiter?

DER FONDS) „Der hohe Ölpreis beschert den Ölwerten weiterhin gute Chancen, rückt aber auch die Bio-Kraftstoff-Aktien weiter in den Mittelpunkt“, sagt Wolfgang Jerabek. Der Fondsmanager und Experte für Energieaktien bei der österreichischen Kapitalanlagegesellschaft Capital Invest erklärt im Gespräch mit DER FONDS.com, welchen Hintergrund der aktuelle Ölpreisanstieg hat.

DER FONDS.com: Der Ölpreis klettert und klettert, die Marke von 70 Dollar je Barrel, also rund 159 Liter, ist bereits überschritten. Böse Zungen behaupten, dass besonders die Spekulanten den Preis in die Höhe treiben. Was ist da dran?

Wolfgang Jerabek: Ich schätze den Spekulantenanteil auf etwa 6 Dollar je Barrel. Andere Marktteilnehmer gehen von 10 Dollar aus. Also hält sich das noch im Rahmen. Gefährlich wird es allerdings, wenn durch neue Rohstoffzertifikate oder Rohstofffonds immer mehr Anleger Öl kaufen. Dann könnte eine Spekulationsblase entstehen.

DER FONDS.com: Wenn der Spekulantenanteil noch gering ist, wer treibt dann den Preis in die Höhe?

Jerabek: Zurzeit ist zwar Rohöl auf dem Markt ausreichend vorhanden. Weil aber der größte Teil davon aus Texas und Saudi-Arabien kommt, hat es einen sehr hohen Schwefelanteil. Dadurch dauert es länger, das Öl zu raffinieren. Da in den USA durch die Wirbelstürme sowieso nur 80 Prozent der Raffinerien noch in Takt sind, werden die Endprodukte Heizöl, Benzin und Diesel knapper. Dort steigen also die Preise, und das schlägt auf alle Rohölsorten durch. Eine rationale Erklärung für dieses Phänomen gibt es nicht – so funktioniert der Markt.

DER FONDS.com: Wo erwarten Sie die Spitze des Ölpreises?

Jerabek: Im Hinblick auf den offenen USA-Konflikt mit dem Iran, die Prognosen für die nächste Hurrikan-Phase und die nun anstehende Autofahr-Saison in den USA sollte die kommende Spitze bei 80 Dollar je Barrel liegen. Diese Schätzung berücksichtigt jedoch nur Angebot und Nachfrage, keine Spekulationen.

DER FONDS.com: Wie wirkt sich der steigende Ölpreis auf die Ölaktien aus?

Jerabek: Besonders der Mangel an Raffinerien beschert den Unternehmen, die Raffinerien bauen, volle Auftragsbücher und hohe Gewinnmargen. Die Bewertung ist bei diesen Titeln zudem noch sehr günstig. Solange der Ölpreis steigt, verdienen auch die klassischen Ölwerte eine Übergewichtung. Gegen diesen Trend sollte man sich einfach nicht stellen.

DER FONDS.com: Und inwiefern sind die Aktien aus dem Bereich der erneuerbaren Energien vom Ölpreisanstieg betroffen?

Jerabek: Die rücken weiter in den Mittelpunkt, weil sich immer mehr Staaten vom hohen Ölpreis abkoppeln wollen. Gute Aussichten haben vor allem die Bio-Kraftstoff-Unternehmen, die durch die EU-Richtlinie unterstützt werden. Diese sieht vor, dass bis zum Jahr 2010 dem Treibstoff 5,75 Prozent Bio-Kraftstoff beigemischt werden soll. Das Etappenziel für Ende 2005 lag bei einem Anteil von 2 Prozent. Angesichts dieser Wachstumsfantasie sind die Bio-Kraftstoff-Aktien mit einem Kurs-Gewinn-Verhältnis (KGV) von unter 30 noch günstig bewertet.

Die Solarenergie-Aktien dagegen halte ich mit KGVs von teilweise über 50 schon für ausgereizt. Bei den Windenergieunternehmen gibt es derzeit nur zwei große Anbieter, die sind mit einem KGV von um die 30 allerdings recht günstig zu haben.

INFO: Wolfgang Jerabek (34) kam im Jahr 2001 zu Capital Invest; ein Jahr später wurde er Fondsmanager. Zuvor arbeitete er seit 1997 bei der DWS in Österreich in der Kontrollabteilung für fremd gemanagte Fonds. Zur Deutschen Bank ging Jerabek 1994 als technischer Assistent im Private Banking. Seine berufliche Karriere begann er im Jahr 1992 als Kundenbetreuer bei der Bank Austria. Jerabek hat eine Ausbildung in der Handelsakademie in Wien abgeschlossen sowie die Bankenprüfung in der Bank Austria bestanden.

Äußerst aussichtsreich!
Konflikte um Öl und Gas nehmen zu. Aktien dieser beiden Unternehmen könnten darauf mit Kursvervielfachungen reagieren.

Die Experten von Pennystockraketen raten spekulativen Anlegern zum Einstieg bei Greenshift und Pacific Ethanol. Beide Firmen entwickeln Verfahren, die eine Steigerung der Effizienz bei der Erzeugung des alternativen Kraftstoffs Ethanol ermöglichen. Dies führt zu markant geringeren Herstellungskosten je Gallone Ethanol – und könnte damit die Biotreibstoffe für Verbrauchern attraktiver machen.

Dann hat man ja auch jedes Mal die Gebühren. Und nicht zu vergessen, die Nerven, die strapaziert werden.
Also ich bin seit 16,95€ drin, und vor 100 % gehe ich hier nicht raus.

xethanol kann auch noch viel spaß machen,ist allerdings auch eher etwas für risiko bereite anleger.

[smoke2000]

@gruebchen7

Gewinnmitnahmen haben noch niemandem geschadet. 100% in relativ kurzer Zeit sind nicht schlecht. Muss halt jeder selbst entscheiden. 3mal pro Woche raus und wieder rein ist mir persönlich zuviel Stress und auch zu riskant.


@Bioenergy

Pacific Ethanol wird 100%ig seinen Weg machen und ich bin auch der Meinung, dass man langfristig ordentlich mit PEIX verdienen kann, sonst hätte ich ja kaum diesen Thread eröffnet. Jedoch würde ich keinen Vergleich zwischen Pacific Ethanol und Microsoft machen. Microsoft ist weltweit tätig, und dies nicht seit ein paar Monaten sondern schon fast 30 Jahre. Desweiteren ist Microsoft in mehreren Bereichen Quasi-Monopolist, was PEIX nie werden wird. Bei PEIX haben wir eine Firma die in Kalifornien tätig ist und die meiner Meinung nach kaum in den nächsten Jahren international tätig sein wird. Dies bedeutet nicht, dass hier was Grosses am Entstehen ist, jedoch kann man die Beteiligung von Bill Gates an PEIX nicht als Indikator sehen, dass PEIX jemals in der Liga von Microsoft spielen wird.

Bin "seltsamerweise" auf exactemente dasselbe Ergebnis wie Du gekommen:

Archer Daniels und The Andersons.

Mit einem Prä für Archer Daniels, da geringeres KGV und größer.
Kann sich bei The Andersons aber noch a(e)ndern ... siehe gestrige Quartalszahlen.

Unter den "Verlustunternehmen" hätte ich nur Pacific Ethanol gewagt, wg. dem Bill-Gates-Einstieg. Im Zweifel aber für Größe, Marktführerschaft, positive Ertragshistorie.

Warren Buffet zu Ethanol:

"Charlie [Munger] and I do not know enough about the business to evaluate it. It depends on government policy and a lot of other variables we're not good at predicting. It's also a very hot area for investors right now, and we don't like looking at things that are hot and easy to raise money for. Generally speaking, agricultural processing businesses have not earned high returns on tangible capital. Ethanol could prove an exception, but I'm not sure how you gain a competitive advantage with any particular ethanol plant."

Investors and farmers alike hope this time is the charm for ethanol
By Michael O'Neal and Greg Burns
Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO - Richard Branson, the globetrotting chief of Britain's Virgin Group Ltd., is a true believer. So is Microsoft Corp.'s Bill Gates, the world's richest man.

Vinod Khosla, arguably Silicon Valley's most successful venture capitalist, is throwing his weight behind it. Investment powerhouse Goldman Sachs is right on his heels.

Then there's Frank Mackaman, the mayor of little Pekin, Ill., a Corn Belt town with a giant ethanol plant on its outskirts.

"If ethanol is the latest gold rush, I'd like to be part of it," he said. "We are in the right place at the right time."

With oil sloshing past $70 a barrel and angst over global warming and national security at a fever pitch, ethanol is back. The buzz about the corn-based "biofuel" is crackling from Wall Street conference rooms to the 6 a.m. coffee klatches at your average downstate Denny's.

President Bush reopened the fractious debate about federal protections for the corn-based bio-fuel on Friday when he proposed lifting a 54-cent tariff on imported ethanol - a move that could take some of the air out of high-flying stocks like Decatur, Ill.-based Archer Daniels Midland Co. and Pacific Ethanol Inc.

But with Bush, Congress and some of the world's most savvy investors also giving the industry heavy political and financial support, the long-term momentum isn't likely to ebb so easily.

For anyone who has been seduced and disappointed by ethanol's siren song over the past 30 years, the question raised by all of this is obvious: Why is anything different this time?

But scientists are providing compelling evidence that ethanol may be approaching a crucial tipping point. And plenty of people are listening.

"The world is facing a self-inflicted catastrophe," said Branson, who devoted as much as $500 million to ethanol investments after a visit from former Vice President Al Gore. "At Virgin we're playing our own part with our planes and trains. We decided we have to do something about it."

While Gore may have helped Branson see the environmental imperative, the transportation and entertainment magnate didn't build a $2.8 billion fortune by making foolish business decisions.

What he and others are banking on is that the market for clean-burning, plant-based ethanol will benefit not only from chronically high oil prices but also breakthrough advances in molecular biology.

Genetically modified organisms that can unlock the valuable sugars in everything from prairie grass and poplar trees to manure and wood chips promise to make ethanol production much more feasible, raising hopes that it could, indeed, help wean the U.S. from its troublesome dependence on Mideast oil.

"It's the power of biotechnology," said James McMillan, a top scientist at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colo. "We're very close to this stuff being a no-brainer."

The knock against ethanol has always been that without the billions in federal and state subsidies it receives annually it would never be competitive. As it stands, said David Bullock, an economist with the University of Illinois, federal ethanol policy deliberately distorts the marketplace to the benefit of rural communities in the Midwest.

But at a current price of more than $2.50 per gallon, double its level a year ago, the economics have become irresistible with or without subsidies. A bushel of corn costing barely more than two bucks can be brewed into almost three gallons of ethanol, providing an enormous profit margin for a commodity product. Uncle Sam further sweetens the pot with a tax break amounting to $1.50 or so per bushel. And once fermentation is complete, even the leftover grain byproducts can be sold for livestock feed.

"You do the math. It's just a bonanza," said Dan Basse, analyst at Chicago's AgResource Co. "They're just making so much money."

Bernie Punt, the general manager of Iowa-based ethanol producer Siouxland Energy and Livestock Co-op, said the gusher has transformed his community. After collecting their fat distribution checks this past year, co-op members helped out needy neighbors, contributed to school systems and followed through on long-deferred equipment purchases, he said.

They're also coming back for more. Equity drives to fund expansion across the state are "packed" with farmers "writing out checks for $5,000, $10,000, $50,000, $100,000," he said. His co-op plans to expand 40 percent.

"That's how hungry farmers are for value-added," Punt said. "It's great for the economy. It's great for the farmer."

The big question, of course, is can the boom continue?

Ethanol got a big push last year when the Energy Policy Act mandated increased production. It has also benefited from a switch by oil refiners from a substance called MTBE - which has been found to contaminate groundwater - to 10 percent ethanol to provide a cleaner burning blend.

But Basse voices a common concern when he says that the boom can't go on forever. Over the next 18 months or two years, today's ethanol fortune-hunters will be using up so much corn that food costs inevitably will start to rise. Already, corn diverted to ethanol production at ADM generated a spike in the price it charges soft-drink companies for corn syrup.

"That gold rush mentality is going to sap corn from traditional uses," Basse said. "It becomes a real food fight."

Scientists point to government studies concluding that there's more than enough land to support a robust ethanol industry without impinging on the food supply. But getting there will require using genetic science to turn non-food "biomass" like switchgrass or wheat straw into something called cellulosic ethanol, which has yet to be produced commercially.

Even the most optimistic advocates concede that ethanol isn't likely to supplant oil for many years. Despite state-mandated blending requirements, it still only makes up 3 percent of the nation's 140 billion-gallon annual demand for gasoline.

But several years ago, the same sorts of arguments could have been made about Brazil. And today, that country is virtually energy independent because of ethanol.

Brazil is blessed with an abundance of sugar cane, which is more easily broken down and distilled into ethanol than corn. A government push to wean the country from imported oil has replaced 40 percent of demand with ethanol. That, coupled with its own oil reserves, has largely unshackled Brazil from external sources and freed up more than $50 billion for domestic spending.

At the typical Brazilian "fuel station," drivers can fill up with either gas or a blend of 90 percent ethanol-10 percent petrol. More than 70 percent of the nation's cars are "flex-fuel," meaning they will run on either gas or ethanol. Three years ago, that number was closer to 4 percent, but auto companies began offering flex vehicles to drivers clamoring for cheap ethanol.

General Motors, Ford, Chrysler and Toyota are all pumping out flex-fuel vehicles for the U.S. market, even though only about 600 of this nation's roughly 170,000 gas stations serve up an 85 percent ethanol blend called E85. Already, more than 5 million vehicles on U.S. roads have flex-fuel capability and more are on the way. The appeal to the auto companies is clear: Compared to expensive emissions controls, producing flex-fuel vehicles is cheap and politically correct.

All of this - plus the political push in Washington - has inspired a current building boom of traditional ethanol plants that turn corn kernels into alcohol formulated to power a car or truck.

ADM, the nation's biggest producer, is spending billions to expand its current 1 billion gallon capacity. Bill Gates' Cascade Investment LLC last year gave $84 million to California's Pacific Ethanol to build five plants on the West Coast - well outside the traditional Midwestern Ethanol Belt. Total industry capacity is around 4.5 billion gallons a year (about the same as Brazil) but is growing at more than 20 percent a year, according to the Renewable Fuels Association.

Pacific Ethanol CEO Neil Koehler said the biggest surprise is that some of the major oil companies have been talking seriously about how to get in on the action. Exhibit A is Royal Dutch Shell Group's support for a Canadian company called Iogen Corp., which has staked its future on cellulosic technology. Drawing on breakthroughs in molecular science, Iogen has formulated an enzymatic "cocktail" that can break down wheat straw into sugars that can be transformed into ethanol. It has built a $40 million demonstration plant in Ottawa that can continuously produce 1 million gallons of ethanol a year from the straw left in farmer's fields after harvesting wheat.

Executive vice president Jeff Passmore said the effort has been a painstaking exercise in going back and forth between developing the enzymes and scaling the process up to industrial levels. What works in the petri dish, he said, doesn't always work in a large metal fermenting tank.

But with support from Shell and a new infusion of $30 million from Goldman Sachs, Iogen hopes to build the world's first commercial-scale cellulosic plant in Idaho, where it has already rounded up 320 farmers who can supply 400,000 tons of straw. That will require a U.S. federal grant of as much as $80 million under a subsidy program for cellulosic plant development contained in last year's Energy Policy Act.

Critics would argue that this only provides further evidence that the government is propping up an industry that would fail on its own.

But proponents would counter that oil also gets tax breaks and that the wider promise of ethanol - both economically and socially - justifies the national investment.

"The government needs to be an investor in the first plants," said Charles Wyman, a chemical engineer at the University of California, Riverside. "You won't get any benefit from this technology if you don't have a plant" to begin working up the industrial learning curve.

What's clear is that the technology answers many of the questions that have dogged the industry for years. First of all, it cuts the cost of production dramatically because it allows producers to use junk, not food, for raw material. Not only does that make it more competitive, but it also makes up for the fact that ethanol gets fewer miles per gallon than gas, despite burning cleaner, with better octane.

Cellulosic technology also allows for more ethanol from less land, neatly hurdling the inflation argument. The U.S. Departments of Energy and Agriculture released a study last year showing that existing "agriculture lands can provide nearly 1 billion tons of dry biomass and continue to meet food, feed and export demands." That's enough, it concluded, to "displace 30 percent or more of the country's present petroleum consumption."

Third, production of cellulosic ethanol creates far fewer greenhouse gasses than either oil refining or regular ethanol production.

The reason: a by-product of the process is a non-fossil compound called lignan, which can be burned instead of natural gas to power the process. It's also true that most biomass doesn't require fertilizer, which also sucks up fossil fuels in production.

Ethanol aside, the potential of industrial biotech can be dazzling. Scientists point out that once you have sugars in abundance, you can replace any number of messy substances that are now contributing to the petroleum addiction.

DuPont has programmed an organism to produce enzymes that break sugars into a compound called Bio-PDO, which the company will use to make its Sorona-brand apparel fabric. Sorona is currently produced from a petroleum-based polymer, but DuPont sees Bio-PDO as the first of many future bio-replacements.

"The notion that a cell is a factory can move in a lot of directions," said Thomas Connelly, DuPont's chief science and technology officer. "The sugar is the feedstock, but the product doesn't have to be ethanol."

To venture capitalist Khosla, what's happening is nothing short of miraculous. As he put it in a March speech at Google Inc.: "This is a macroeconomic shift that will change the whole planet, I think. It relies on the power of ideas fueled by entrepreneurial energy."

Given the hurdles, it's easy to argue that ethanol is just a pipe dream. But America has never been short on ideas and entrepreneurial energy.

Pacific Ethanol Completes Permitting for Planned Ethanol Plant in Boardman, Oregon; Construction on Second Facility Expected to Begin in Thirty Days


2006-05-09 08:00 ET - News Release


FRESNO, Calif., May 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Pacific Ethanol, Inc. today announced that it has received all necessary permits to begin construction on a 35 million gallon per year ethanol facility at the Port of Morrow, located on the Columbia River near Boardman, Oregon. The Company further stated that it expects to begin construction, which should take approximately 12 months, within the next thirty days.

CEO Neil Koehler observed that "This milestone is the latest in our stated plan to construct five ethanol production facilities to serve the western United States by the end of 2008. The Boardman plant is well situated, with access to the Columbia River, the Union Pacific Railroad and Interstate 84. The design will be based on our plant currently under construction in Madera, California, and therefore design and construction should proceed at a faster rate than the Madera plant, which we expect will begin ethanol production in the fourth quarter of this year."

The Oregon ethanol facility will provide ethanol for the Pacific Northwest gasoline markets, helping to increase supply in that area and provide a CO2-reducing fuel for the transportation sector. It is expected that the plant's distillers grains will be sold to the local Oregon and Washington dairy and feed markets.

About Pacific Ethanol, Inc.

Butanol vs. Ethanol
- Higher energy content (110,000 Btu’s per gallon for butanol vs. 84,000 Btu per gallon for ethanol). Gasoline contains about 115,000 Btu’s per gallon.
- Butanol is six times less “evaporative” than ethanol and 13.5 times less evaporative than gasoline, making it safer to use as an oxygenate in Arizona, California and other states, thereby eliminating the need for very special blends during the summer and winter months.
- Butanol can be shipped through existing fuel pipelines where ethanol must be transported via rail, barge or truck
- Butanol can be used as a replacement for gasoline gallon for gallon e.g. 100%, or any other percentage. Ethanol can only be used as an additive to gasoline up to about 85% and then only after significant modifications to the engine. Worldwide 10% ethanol blends predominate.

The Ethanol Investment Craze
by Russell Hasan

26 de junio de 2006


Advocates of renewable energy must be happy to see Wall Street firmly embracing the rise of ethanol, specifically American corn-based ethanol. There has been a surge of ethanol popularity in the media, including stories on "60 Minutes" and CNN and "Live Green Go Yellow" ads by GM, and there is a corresponding ethanol craze among investors. The investment interest in ethanol is borderline frenzy. This is dangerous, because investors seem to be pouring in money just on the basis of seeing the word "ethanol," without any detailed understanding of the corn ethanol industry and factors affecting the ethanol market.

"If the ethanol boom goes the way of the dotcom bubble, then various factors will cause the majority of ethanol startups to go bust in five to ten years, having been nothing more than fool\'s gold."

-- Russell Hasen, RE Insider I am an advocate of alternative energy and I have no bias against ethanol or in favor of oil. In fact, politically I am pro-ethanol, both for environmental protection and for energy independence. However, there are economic data to consider when making financial investments.

American corn ethanol is being promoted by many of the investment banks that brought on the dotcom boom and bust of 2000, and there might well be a similar bubble growing in ethanol investment that may pop with devastating consequences for American ethanol. While writing a research report on the corn ethanol industry for altenews.com, I came upon an extensive assortment of statistics that will put a damper on corn ethanol in the next five to ten years. After a consideration of market data, there are some interesting and disturbing factors for investors to consider before investing in ethanol in America. There are also some aspects of corn ethanol that will bother environmentalists. I will offer analysis of some of these factors below.

There are simple dynamics of supply and demand that will cause the price of corn ethanol to drop within the next ten years. Ethanol demand has been created by federal and state government mandates requiring ethanol use, including the switch from MTBE and the Energy Policy Act. However, fueled by the ethanol investment boom, so many new plants are being built that ethanol capacity will outgrow mandated usage in the near future. When that happens, supply will be greater than demand and the price of ethanol will drop.

The profit margin for ethanol producers is dependent upon enormous government tax incentives and tariffs. If government support for ethanol, which is currently propped up by farm state Senators and industry lobbying, were to fade away, then profit margins would suffer fatal blows. Much of the political interest in ethanol is as a way to counter high gas prices which anger voters, and if crude oil and gasoline prices drop, it may sap political support for ethanol. Ethanol gets less mileage per gallon than gasoline, and wholesale ethanol costs more than wholesale gasoline, so if oil prices drop and bring down gas prices it will produce brutal competition from gasoline. Ethanol has not yet achieved mainstream status among drivers, so it must be able to compete with gasoline. Thus, the success of ethanol depends upon the price of oil. There is also a lot of data concerning tight corn supply that may bring the price of ethanol up and lead to competition between corn for fuel and corn for food.

Ethanol has been championed by environmentalists and advocates of clean energy. However, there are factors in regards to which it may not be best for renewable energy activists to like the corn ethanol produced in America as opposed to two other kinds of ethanol, the sugarcane ethanol made in South America and the cellulosic ethanol that is being developed in research laboratories. Brazilian sugarcane ethanol is cheaper to produce and more energy efficient than American corn ethanol, and the only thing protecting corn ethanol is the prohibitive import tariff. However, Brazilian ethanol may reach America duty-free through a loophole in CAFTA and the Caribbean Basin Initiative. Brazil\'s ethanol has led Brazil to the position of having forty percent of its fuel needs filled by ethanol, marking it as far advanced over America in ethanol usage, in part because of the qualities of sugarcane ethanol. Cellulosic ethanol, which is already being produced in Canada and whose large-scale production is in the development stage, may be six times more energy efficient than corn ethanol and produce no pollution, which would be significantly cleaner than corn ethanol. The American corn ethanol lobby, funded by the ethanol investment craze, may exert political power to suppress sugarcane ethanol and cellulosic ethanol, in which case it may actually act against the anti-pollution agenda of clean energy in the long run. Competition from Brazil and cellulose will also have a harsh impact on corn ethanol profits.

There are other arguments that can be made against the environmental benefits of American corn ethanol. The nation\'s largest manufacturer of ethanol, ADM, is reported to be burning coal to power its ethanol production plants. Research suggests that ethanol made from coal-burning plants has no net benefit in terms of reducing air pollution. It has also been reported that ethanol plants have enormous water needs, demanding as much as two million gallons per day, which may upset some water conservationists.

Another factor to consider is the impact of celebrity endorsements of ethanol, which are distracting investors from the hard data of the ethanol market. Richard Branson and Ted Turner are often cited, but they are reported to have interest in cellulosic ethanol as well as corn ethanol. Bill Gates is perhaps the most well-known endorsement of corn ethanol with his $84 million investment in Pacific Ethanol. What is little talked about is the fact that Bill Gates received extremely generous terms for his investment that the average investor will never come close to. Based on the one-to-two conversion ratio of his preferred stock to common stock, it can be said that Gates paid one fourth of the price that the average investor paid for Pacific Ethanol stock on the same day of the transaction. Also, the terms of his investment give Gates substantial control over the company. Big name endorsements and media coverage are causing an ethanol investment craze that is overwhelming the tendency of investors to invest based on actual data.

The full text of my analysis of the ethanol industry and the statistics to support my conclusions can be found in the research report called "Ethanol Investment: Golden Opportunity or Fool\'s Gold?" in the research report section of Alternative Energy News Source, http://www.altenews.com/researchreports.htm.

To summarize my conclusions, ethanol deserves political support for environmental and energy independence purposes, but investors interested solely in profits should be cautious. If the ethanol boom goes the way of the dotcom bubble, then various factors will cause the majority of ethanol startups to go bust in five to ten years, having been nothing more than fool\'s gold, but the better ethanol companies will survive and prosper, creating golden opportunities for investors who study things such as supply of raw materials, manufacturing costs, and other market data. Anyone who likes ethanol should also be on the lookout for the development of cellulosic ethanol, which will one day revolutionize the biofuels industry. Investors and environmentalists who are troubled by this information are invited to read "Ethanol Investment: Golden Opportunity or Fool\'s Gold?" which is available free to the public on altenews.com.

Zacks.com releases the latest Analyst Interview. Today's interview is with Director of Equity Research Jon Kolb, who discusses Archer Daniels-Midland (NYSE:ADM), Evergreen Solar (Nasdaq:ESLR), Energy Conversion Devices (Nasdaq:ENER) and Pacific Ethanol (Nasdaq:PEIX).


A synopsis of today's Analyst Interview is presented below. The full article can be read at http://at.zacks.com/?id=2678.

How should investors look to play the alt-energy market?

Well, there are always big companies like Archer Daniels-Midland (NYSE:ADM). They are not pure plays, but they have a bio-fuels division, a wind power division. Lots of utilities receive tax incentives to use alternative energy - 15% or whatever - so there is some advantage there.

The problem with a lot of the pure-play alt-energy companies is that they're trading at extraordinarily high valuations. Many of them have multiples way up in the hundreds; some have even gone over 1,000. This obviously creates a great deal of risk, especially when profitability is still a year or two out.

This reminds me of the Internet bubble in the late-90s. Those valuations got way out of whack and eventually plummeted down. Unfortunately, I expect some of the same thing with many of these alt-energy stocks.

The winners will be those that are first to market - I'm thinking specifically of Evergreen Solar (Nasdaq:ESLR) and Energy Conversion Devices (Nasdaq: ENER). We like the stories of these two companies, but we feel they are very expensive at this time. Recently, we upgraded ENER to a Hold, and it looks like a good time to have done it. But there still is considerable downside risk - it's a $37 stock, and they won't be showing profits until 2008.

Pacific Ethanol (Nasdaq:PEIX) is another company worth taking a look at here. This stock has done really well - Bill Gates was an early investor - but another issue with ethanol companies is that their reliance on the commodity of corn may cause it to trade like a commodity stock. Again, the multiples are way too high from that perspective right now.

What developments will you be watching for going forward?

It should be interesting to see what will happen. I expect solar power will probably earn higher multiples than the other forms of alt-energy because there is a little more proprietary knowledge in making their product.

I also expect a lot of volatility. This is one thing investors should definitely watch out for. These are stocks you can't just buy and ignore, because they tend to be all over the board.

ich weiß nicht ob das gut ist, sich mit den shorties anzulegen.

schau mal, das funktioniert so.

bei einem short sitzen 3 Zusammen

der 1 erste leiht dir die Aktie /also er hat sie schon-agiert nun
gewöhnlich als Stillhalter.

der 2. der den short genommen hat

legt diese Aktie bei seinem Broker (dem 3 ten)
zum Verkauf ein.

faktisch, müssen immer genügend Kaufer da sein, die den Short aufsammeln, wenn die mal aussetzen, geht der Kurs runter.

Das Blatt wendet sich erst, wenn die Shorts locker weggekauft werden, und zusätzlich noch ne Menge weitere Shares gekauft werden.
Du mußt also echt satt viele Bullen haben,
am besten erkennt man das bei den Umsätzen, sollten die extrem hoch werden und steigen hast du Anzeichen einer Wende.

Aber ehrlich so siehts gar nicht aus.
Ob jetzt Freitag oder Montag, irgendwie hängt das Ding zwischen Baum und Gurke.
Zwischen 17 und 20 bist du noch in einer Wiederstandszone,
rauf wie runter.
Drüber locken dir 25 erstmal, sollten die Shorties kalte Füße bekommen mehr,
drunter siehts nicht gut aus, man sollte sich auf 10 einstellen können, ob man das aushalten muß. Ich weiß nicht, ich nicht.

Today From Barron's
Against the Grain

By Bill Alpert Published: August 10, 2006


ETHANOL IS HAVING a bumper year. Prices for the corn-based gasoline additive have spiked, along with oil prices. Bountiful harvests have held down the cost of corn, the primary feedstock for making the grain alcohol. So ethanol refiners are enjoying booming sales and record profit margins. And Wall Street is throwing money at them all.

Shares of the nation's largest ethanol refiner — the agri-giant Archer Daniels Midland (ADM: 40.57, -1.24, -3.0%) — are up 68% this year (as anticipated in our story "Power by the Bushel," April 3). The stock of pure-play ethanol refiner Pacific Ethanol (PEIX: 16.60, -0.30, -1.8%) leapt fourfold this year, before dropping back. Initial public offerings by the large refiners VeraSun Energy (VSE: 23.30, -0.55, -2.3%) and Aventine Renewable Energy (AVR: 30.75, +0.07, +0.2%) raised more than $700 million between them, while another ethanol refiner, Hawkeye Holdings, has registered for its debut.

If oil prices remain high, then U.S. fuel consumption of ethanol could at least double from the 2005 level of four billion gallons. But industry executives like Archer Daniels Chief Executive Patricia Woertz have set their sights even higher. Last week, in announcing the company's record earnings for its June 2006 fiscal year, Woertz said ethanol demand could triple. "It looks like it has room to grow to 14 billion or 15 billion [gallons per year]," she said, "which is a full 10% blend in the gasoline pool in the United States."

Unfortunately, before ethanol refiners can reach that goal, they might reach the limits of the country's corn supply. America's entire corn crop would satisfy just 12% of gasoline consumption, leaving no corn to feed livestock and humans. So there just won't be enough corn for corn ethanol to grow from a fuel additive into a large-scale substitute for fossil fuel. Crop years vary, too. Dry weather this year in the Corn Belt has already worried some commodity traders.

The competition between fuel and food will play itself out in corn prices. Higher corn prices will be great for growers, if not for the hungry people in countries like Egypt who depend on U.S. corn exports. But more expensive corn would surely narrow the record margins that ethanol refiners now enjoy and the generous valuations of their shares.

Corn, of course, isn't the only crop that can supply motor fuel. Soy and rapeseed are already used to make biodiesel fuel. Many companies are trying to reduce the costs of making ethanol from nonfood sources, like the cellulose in grasses and trees.

But corn-ethanol production is the best-proven technology. After all, moonshiners were making grain alcohol for centuries before the Whiskey Rebellion of the 1790s. Henry Ford used ethanol to fuel some Model Ts. In the 1970s, Duane Andreas, then the chief of Archer Daniels Midland, used the oil embargoes and his generous campaign contributions to win government subsidies for ADM's ethanol production. Subsidies were essential because nobody could make ethanol profitably when the alternative was $20 a barrel oil.

Nowadays, a typical ethanol refinery grinds corn, adds water and enzymes, and then burns natural gas to cook the resulting slurry until the corn's starch changes to sugar. The slurry goes into fermentation tanks, where yeast converts the sugar to alcohol and carbon dioxide. The alcohol then gets filtered out and the remaining corn mash is dried into an animal feed called distiller's dried grains.

Even with spot prices above 75 bucks a barrel for oil, the ethanol market enjoys government subsidies at many levels. Corn farmers get crop subsidies. Gasoline refiners who add ethanol can claim a 51-cent-per-gallon tax credit. Tariffs deter imported ethanol from Brazil. Without modification, automobiles can burn a blend that's 15% ethanol and 85% gasoline, but General Motors and Ford earn extra credit toward their government fuel-economy obligations when they sell cars equipped to run a blend of 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline that's known as E-85.

Ethanol's latest government boost came last year, when the Energy Policy Act of 2005 included provisions known as the Renewable Fuels Standard, which mandate that gasoline blenders increase the amount of ethanol mixed in gasoline. The RFS calls for the nation's use of ethanol (or its soy-based cousin, biodiesel) to rise from last year's level of four billion gallons to a level of 7.5 billion gallons in 2012. Total consumption of motor gasoline in the U.S. is expected to rise from about 140 billion gallons in 2005 to almost 155 billion gallons in 2012, according to forecasts by the Department of Energy. So the RFS ethanol goal for 2012 represents about 5% of the country's expected consumption of gasoline.

Ethanol production will probably surpass the government's goals by 2008 — four years ahead of the federal mandate. That's because the gasoline industry is substituting ethanol for an additive known as MTBE, which reduces tailpipe emissions but has been banned in many states as a suspected pollutant of groundwater. The gasoline industry's MTBE phaseout — along with the spike in gasoline prices in the wake of Hurricane Katrina and war in the Middle East — has sent the price of ethanol gushing this year.

Since January, ethanol's wholesale price spurted from about $2 a gallon to more than $3.80. Meanwhile, the steadily rising productivity of America's corn farms held corn prices near the bottom of their historical range of $1.50 to $2.75 per bushel (each bushel yields about 2.8 gallons of ethanol). That's meant record "crush" spreads between corn and ethanol prices — the industry's shorthand measure of the profitability of ethanol plants.

In the past year, the difference between ethanol and corn prices has soared from less than 50 cents to about $3.10 a gallon. That's lifted the annual return on capital for some ethanol plants toward 50% and set off a stampede of new investment in ethanol refining.

Archer Daniels is the leading ethanol producer. The Decatur, Ill.-based company makes 29% of the country's ethanol and plans to invest billions in capacity additions. On Tuesday's earnings call, the company said it was breaking ground this month on a Columbus, Neb., plant that will make 275 million gallons a year when it comes on line in early 2008. A few months later, a similarly sized new plant should open in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. The two new plants would boost ADM's production capacity by 50%.

Ethanol has provided good returns to ADM lately. In the fiscal year ended June, ADM's operating profits from corn bioproducts increased year-over-year from $259 million to $446 million. In total, ADM earnings rose 26% from the prior fiscal year, to $1.3 billion, or $2 a share, on a 2% rise in revenues to $36.6 billion. ADM shares have also bubbled up on an ethanol premium. At their recent level of 42, the company's shares valued the business at $31.8 billion (including debt).

Deutsche Bank analyst Eric Katzman estimates the ethanol premium in ADM shares by first valuing the rest of the company's businesses. Most of ADM revenues come from milling commodities like oilseeds and wheat. At cyclical peaks, those commodity businesses earn 6% to 7% operating margins. If ADM's non-ethanol sales grow to $37 billion for the fiscal year ending June 2008, Katzman figures that a 6.5% margin would yield $2.60 in non-ethanol earnings per share. By 2008, ADM should have expanded its ethanol production to 1.5 billion gallons a year.

By 2008, the Deutsche Bank analyst guesses, ethanol prices will drop to about $2.20 a gallon, because other producers will have added a couple of billion gallons a year in capacity, and gasoline marketers will have finished their MTBE phaseout.

If ADM can earn 27% operating margins on its 2008 ethanol production, ethanol's contribution to fiscal 2008 earnings would be 90 cents a share, bringing total ADM earnings to $3.50 a share for fiscal 2008. Commodity businesses merit an earnings multiple of 12 to 13 times earnings, Katzman says, and after discounting back those 2008 earnings (by 9% a year), he arrives at a present value of $37 for ADM stock. With the shares at 42 these days, investors are implicitly betting that ADM's ethanol margins will be 40%, not 27%. It's no surprise that Katzman rates them a Hold.

ADM didn't respond to Barron's requests for an interview.

Trying to catch up in the U.S. ethanol market is ADM rival Bunge (BG: 53.25, -0.49, -0.9%), which is also the world's largest soy distributor. Since May, the White Plains, N.Y.-based company has announced three joint ventures to produce ethanol in Mississippi, Illinois and Iowa — each in collaboration with farmer-owned companies.

Investors have gotten giddier over ethanol pure-play Pacific Ethanol. Wall Street's bender started late last year, when the company disclosed an $84 million stake placed by an investment trust of Microsoft's Bill Gates. From January to May, shares in the Fresno-based company ran from about 10 bucks to 44.50, before reversing course to a recent 19.21. That leaves Pacific Ethanol with a stock-market capitalization of about $775 million.

The company is in the midst of building five ethanol refineries, which could produce 220 million gallons in 2008. Meanwhile, it distributes ethanol made by others. In the 12 months through March, it lost $9 million, or 31 cents a share, on sales of $124 million. The vote of confidence by Gates' Cascade Investment merits only so much weight, given that the investment consists of preferred shares that convert to common at an effective price of $8 a share. During the stock's blow-off this spring, insiders sold more than $100 million worth of shares. In July, the company registered eight million shares and warrants held by investment firms — representing about 20% of Pacific Ethanol's outstanding stock. As of mid-July, about the same number of shares were sold short.

It costs only $1.30 to $1.60 a gallon to build an ethanol refinery, according to Morgan Stanley analyst Eric Pipa. So Pacific Ethanol's enterprise value of $630 million (subtracting cash) is twice the replacement cost of the plants that it's building. Bill Gates paid a better price.

After Archer Daniels, the largest U.S. ethanol producer is VeraSun. The Brookings, S.D.-based company has two ethanol plants and is building three more, for a total production capacity of 560 million gallons a year — with the help of $230 million netted in a June initial public offering. In the 12 months ended March, VeraSun earned $1.3 million on sales of $302 million after about $22 million in interest on its $210 million in outstanding debt.

The company's shares have retraced from their post-IPO high of more than 30 bucks, to a recent 23.71 — but that still values the enterprise at almost $2 billion (including debt). Even though Pipa's firm, Morgan Stanley, underwrote VeraSun's IPO, he rates the shares a Hold, noting that share buyers would be paying twice the replacement cost of VeraSun's planned refining capacity. He'd start buying the stock only in the low 20s.

Under a contract that runs through March of 2007, VeraSun has been selling all of its ethanol output through one of its competitors, Aventine Renewable Energy. Aventine raised $261 million in an IPO of its own in June, which it's using to retire debt and expand ethanol production from two plants that currently produce 150 million gallons a year. Aventine is contemplating expansions to add capacity for an added 600 million gallons a year by 2009.

The Pekin, Ill.-based Aventine showed an impressive $1.05 billion in revenues for the 12 months through March, but about 75% of those sales represented ethanol distributed on behalf of other producers, like VeraSun. Most of those sales will quickly disappear next year, when VeraSun ends its distribution deal. But Aventine says that its own ethanol production accounted for most of its reported earnings for the 12 months through March, which were $38 million, or about $1.05 a share.

At a recent price of 28.39, the stock market is valuing Aventine at about $1.3 billion, when it would cost only about $330 million to build Aventine's funded production capacity of 206 million gallons a year. Some 2.6 million shares were sold in the IPO by insiders, including investment funds and individuals who'd previously participated in Aventine private placements. On July 25, Aventine registered an added 21 million shares for those insiders. At the stock's current premium to replacement cost, selling the shares seems like the right decision.

Waiting in the wings to complete its own initial offering is Hawkeye Holdings. That entity owns two large ethanol plants and was taken over on June 30 by a partnership run by Boston-based private-equity investor Thomas H. Lee. Hawkeye then registered to raise up to $350 million in an IPO. If the offering succeeds, Lee will have pulled off an incredibly quick flip.

Apart from a some small startups, like Xethanol (XNL: 5.10, -0.15, -2.9%), the remaining biofuel plays are privately held businesses like Cargill or foreign-domiciled companies like the Madrid-listed Abengoa (ABG.MC), an engineering and construction firm that's also one of the leading-edge producers of ethanol in the U.S. and Europe. Ethanol sales chipped in about 20% of Abengoa's €2 billion in total revenues in 2005 and a like portion of its profits. At a recent price of €18, Abengoa shares trade at 23 times the company's 2005 earnings of 0.73 euros a share. That's a more modest valuation than Abengoa's stateside peers.

The U.S. now has 101 ethanol plants, with aggregate capacity to produce 4.8 billion gallons per year, says the Renewable Fuels Association, a trade group. By the middle of next year, capacity additions could lift the industry's output to seven billion.

Throughout the ethanol industry's quarter-century gestation, some scientists doubted whether using ethanol even helped the environment, after accounting for fossil fuels used in ethanol's production. The latest accounting seems to have settled that debate in favor of biofuels. In the July 25 issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, a team of Minnesota-based researchers concluded that ethanol yields 25% more energy than the fossil fuels used to produce it. What's more, the making and consuming of ethanol produces 12% less greenhouse-gas emissions than gasoline.

The real risk from all these planned ethanol plants is that they'll use up vast quantities of corn. America's entire corn and soy crop could supply fuel volumes equal to just 12% of gasoline demand and 6% of diesel demand, notes a University of Minnesota ecology professor, David Tilman, an author of the July 25 Proceedings article. That's not a full accounting, however. Netting out the fossil fuel used to produce those biofuels, the nation would actually be trimming less than 3% from its fossil-fuel consumption.

Realistically, what will happen is that corn prices will rise. That's wonderful for farm families and should help reduce government farm subsidies. But unless gasoline prices continue their steep rise, tight corn supplies will clamp down on the huge crush spreads that started the stampede to invest in ethanol refineries. Corn already makes up half the cost of goods sold for an ethanol plant. According to the Washington-based World Resources Institute, the price of corn would rise at least 17% if ethanol production reached 10% of U.S. gasoline consumption.

The Bottom Line
Archer Daniels Midland, the leading producer of the fuel, has seen its shares surge 68% this year. But that stock, at a recent 42, may now be 15% overvalued.
To increase corn supply, farmers will have to shift substantial acreage from other crops or significantly boost corn yields. It's not likely there will ever be enough corn to fuel many E-85 vehicles. And for that matter, ethanol gets only two-thirds the mileage of gasoline, so consumers may balk at paying comparable prices.

Better ethanol sources than corn would be grasses and fast-growing poplar trees, says Minnesota's Tilman. Using enzymes and large "digestion" vessels, the cellulose in those plants can be converted into fermentable sugar. But today's technology for producing such "cellulosic" ethanol requires higher capital and operating expenditures than does corn processing.

Corn prices, meanwhile, are starting to move up. VeraSun's prospectus notes that its average corn cost in the March 2006 quarter was just $1.87 a bushel. At the Chicago Board of Trade, per-bushel prices are now about $2.40. Hedging may give ethanol makers some grace period, but the industry will be lucky, indeed, if it escapes having its crush margins ground down.

so wie der kurs zusammengeprügelt wurde, scheint sich gates schon verabschiedet zu haben; müsste man aber noch verifizieren...wer macht das mal für uns?

[dosto]

nein Gates ist drin,

aber nicht in Aktien, und muß auch nicht in Aktien kommen,

dieser Fund ist kein Money Make Fund, sondern etwas für
die philantropische Seele des Herren, damit will er gutes tun,
also neue Energien und so, es geht nicht ums totale Geld machen dort.
Andrerseits wird er nichts verschenken und sich seinen Kredit
schon verzinsen lassen. Erst mal hat er keine Eile.
Man sollte sich auf das Geschäft von PEIX konzentrieren
und nicht um das ganze hallo, der Geschäftszweig ist nicht neu,
das ganze Zeugs gibts schon ewig lange, hier wird ja nichts neues erfunden, das kann man schon fundamental angehen.
Das ganze gezerre, das Benzin geht aus, ist erst mal für die nächsten 5 Jahre usw. totaler bullshit etc.
Hier wird vieles einfach ganz falsch aufgebaut.

Ethanol ist ein Geschäft genauso wie Benzin,
es hängt genauso von einem Rohstoff ab,
es ist genauso ein Massengeschäft und es Bedarf derselben
Infrastruktur. Es gibt keinen Grund sowas zu hypen.
Das Geschäft ist knallhart und erfordert gutes Mangement.
Das alles hat PEIX noch zu beweisen.

Diese Emotionalen-Hoffnungs-Schwanger-Buben (wer hat die bloß geschwängert) teilweise hier an Bord sind nicht dienlich
sondern ärgerlich.

[dosto]

edelupino

der Fund-Trust von Gates wird so 50 Mia Dollar beinhalten.
wenn dort 30 Mia in Tagesgeld angelegt werden, dann
erhält er 1 Milliarde Zinsen im Jahr, ohne das er irgend etwas tun muß.

In welchem Verhältnis stehen da 85 millionen die er PEIX
geliehen hat, selbst wenn sie hops gehen, sind das echte peanuts.

Also Ball unten halten.

Und in einem anderen Feld kombinieren.

[dosto]

so wie der kurs zusammengeprügelt


vielleicht ist der Kurs auch einfach zu gut gelaufen.

was soll einen Menschen daran hindern einfach mal gutes
Geld mitzunehmen, hier wurde ne Menge Geld bereits verdient.
Da arbeiten auch Profis, die nächstes Jahr auch noch arbeiten werden und nicht auf den einen Deal des Lebens warten, wie viele hier bei W.O.
Börse ist daily business, sollte man nie vergessen.

Interessant ist die Aktie auf jeden Fall!
Meine Einschätzung sagt, Pacific Ethanol ehat ein grosses Potential. Subventionen, Gewinn, steigende Ölpreise, Expansion, alles unterstützt eine positive Kursentwicklung. Doch seit Mitte Mai hat uns der Chart was anderes gezeigt.

Ich bin noch nicht so lange an der Börse aktiv und habe oft Fragen oder zu wenig Erfahrung, um meinen Prognosen genügend Vertrauen schenken zu können. Vorwiegend analysiere ich technisch, studiere aber in Zürich Finance und kann ohne Zeitung nicht leben.

Kehrt PEIX bis Ende Jahr wieder die 25$ Marke?

ganz einfach,
solange du Sprit in New York über den Warenmarkt für 1.60 Dollar bekommst.

NYMEX Unleaded Regular Gas 1,59 -1,19%

hat -PEIX- wenig Chancen.

dieser Preis muß hoch auf 2.20 oder ++

alles ist Preisabhängig und Ethanol ist nun mal auch kein billiger Jakob, sondern hat Herstellungskosten.
Daran muß man auch den Kurs messen.

Also die Frage muß heißen,
nicht wieviel und in wieviel Frabiken -PEIX- herstellt.
sondern zu welchem Preis pro Gallone.

Alles andere ist doch Nebensache.

Es sind in den letzten 8Moanten immerhin knapp 10Mio. neue Aktien hinzugekommen und das treibt die MK kräftig nach oben, wenn der Kurs nicht fällt Mit einer aktuellen MK von 585Mio. USD ist PEIX sogar höher bewertet als die Andersons Inc. (ANDE), die immerhin schon 150Mio. USD Umsatz / Quartal mit Ethanol machen. Wenn der Ölpreis weiter fallen sollte, sehen wir im Herbst bei PEIX wieder Kurse deutlich unter der 15USD Marke.

US Ethanol-Produzent verschiebt Börsengang ... der Grund ... das Interesse der Investoren ist stark abegkühlt. Kann man gut nachvollziehen wenn man sich die beiden letzten Ethanol-IPO´s so anschaut.

Ethanol maker Hawkeye Holdings delays IPO
Monday September 18, 7:03 pm ET

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Ethanol producer Hawkeye Holdings Inc. delayed an initial public offering on Monday that was scheduled to debut this week.

Ethanol stirred investor enthusiasm earlier this year amid skyrocketing oil prices, but the buzz has since cooled.

In addition to mounting criticism of the fuel as a viable alternative to gasoline, energy prices have fallen and shares of other recent ethanol listing are suffering.

"This is not unexpected, but it is a little bit discouraging from the ethanol standpoint," said Chris Manns, president of Traders Group Inc., a brokerage firm focused on financial and agricultural commodities markets.

The third largest U.S.-based ethanol producer was set to sell 15.9 million shares Thursday and raise $350 million if priced at the midpoint of a forecast range.

Assuming an offering price of $22 a share, the company would have an initial market capitalization of about $855 million, according to information included in the prospectus.

Despite a record sales and earnings year, the Iowa Falls, Iowa-based company decided to delay the IPO "in light of current conditions in the equity markets and the recent pullback in the energy segment in particular," Chief Executive Bruce Rastetter said in a statement.

The company does plan to continue with a "growth plan," which includes breaking ground in October for a new plant in Menlo, Iowa.

But the IPO delay is the latest blow for the industry.

Ethanol, which is domestically manufactured from corn, is a renewable fuel used to reduce pollution and to extend gasoline stocks.

It possess possible economic and environmental advantages over fossil fuel, but faces significant hurdles to widespread use, including high costs, limited land and water availability and mixed government and corporate support.

The June IPO of ethanol producer VeraSun Energy Corp. (NYSE:VSE - News) rose 30 percent in its debut, bolstered by soaring gasoline prices and growing national sentiment to shrink reliance on foreign oil.

But VeraSun shares have since plunged, falling 20 percent from their offering price.

Another ethanol producer, Aventine Renewable Energy Holdings Inc. (NYSE:AVR - News), which made its debut only weeks later, has done even worse, tumbling about 44 percent from its IPO price.

[Zackes1]

Die Welt hat einen Ersatz für Öl gefunden. Das mag auf einige Produkte zutreffen, doch von dem Stoff von dem ich rede handelt es sich nicht nur um irgendeinen Ersatz. Er handelt sich um den

globalen Megatrend dieses Jahrhunderts.

Was macht mich so sicher? Nicht nur die USA, sondern auch andere Länder haben Gesetze beschlossen, welche diesen Trend unumkehrbar machen. Ein Land wie Brasilien, um ein vielfaches grösser und bevölkerungsreicher als Deutschland hat es bereits geschafft. Brasilien ist seit diesem Jahr unabhängig vom Erdöl. Schweden will es 2020 sein und der grösste Ölverbraucher der Welt, die USA, sind auf dem besten Wege in einigen Jahren sagen können.Was kümmert es mich, wenn im Nahen Osten die Welt untergeht....

Auch die Mächtigen und Reichen haben sich bereits in meinen neuen Lieblingssektor eingekauft und Leute wie Bill Gates oder Steve Case wissen, wie man Geld verdient. Bill Gates hat die besten Anlageberater der Welt. Folgen auch Sie kostenlos deren Rat und sparen Sie die horrenden Gebühren dieser Elite unter den Finanzprofis.

Wussten Sie dass Bill Gates 1999, als niemand etwas von Silber als Anlageobjekt wissen wollte, 3,3 Mio. Aktien des Silberproduzenten Pan American Silver erwarb? In den letzten Jahren ist der Silberpreis explodiert und hat Bill Gates sicherlich schöne Gewinne beschert.

Jetzt aber hat sich Mr. Gates einen neuen Sektor ausgesucht, in den er Anfang des Jahres 84 Mio. US$ investiert hat. Kein geringerer als der US-Präsident ist ebenso angetan und hat angekündigt, die gleiche Industrie gefördert werden soll bis die USA unabhängig vom Erdöl ist.

Und jetzt komt der Clou: der US-Präsident sagte in diesem Jahr:

Die USA wollen 75% ihrer Erdölimporte durch diesen Stoff ersetzen.
"Breakthroughs on this (Celluosic Ethanol) and other new technologies will help us reach another great goal: to replace more than 75% of our oil imports from the Middle East by 2025."

Um was geht es? Um Ethanol


So neu ist die Idee nicht. Aber wer weiss heute noch, dass der Motor des ersten Autos von Gottfried Daimler ursprünglich für Ethonol konzipiert war?
Warum hat Bezin vor 80 Jahren das Ethanol verdrängt? Ganz einfach, es war billiger. Doch diese Zeit ist nun wohl endgültig vorbei. Der Rohölpreis liegt bei 68 US-Dollar pro Barrel. Studien zeigen, der Ölpreis unter 19 US-Dollar fallen müsste, damit Ethanol in den USA wieder unrentabel werden würde. Das ist höchst unwahrscheinlich!

Der Trend von Öl zu Ethanol ist unumkehrbar!

Wissen Sie auch dass Etanol in den USA dem Benzin bereits flächendeckend beigemischt wird mit dramatisch steigenden Anteilen?

Ethanol, der Sektor des 21. Jahrhunderts

Der Zukunftsmarkt des 21. Jahrhunderts sind die erneuerbaren Energien, in naher Zukunft trifft dies besonders auf Ethanol zu � den Kraftstoff der Zukunft, welcher das Potenzial hat, unsere Abhängigkeit vom Erdöl ein für allemal zu beseitigen!


Wie ich schon sagte, werden in in den USA werden seit der neuerlichen Ölpreiskrise wieder verstärkt Anstrengungen unternommen, um das Land unabhängig vom Schwarzen Gold werden zu lassen. Am weitesten lehnt sich der US-Präsident selbst aus dem Fenster: Um das Land aus seiner Ölabhängigkeit zu befreien, sollen bis 2025 75% aller Ölimporte aus dem Mittleren Osten vorwiegend Ethanol ersetzt werden.

Halten wir nun einen Moment inne. Der grösste Verbraucher von Öl der Welt, die USA, möchte den Grossteil seines Ölverbrauch auf Ethanol umstellen.

Malen wir uns aus, um welche Zahlen es geht. In 2005 importierten die USA 3,67 Milliarden Barrel Öl. Beim aktuellen Ölpreis von 68 US-Dollar entspricht dies einem Gegenwert von ca. 250 Milliarden US-Dollar. für einen Einkaufspreis von aktuell ca. 465 Milliarden US-Dollar. Der Löwenanteil kommt aus dem Mittleren Osten. Bis 2025 wird der Energiebedarf noch weiter steigen. Wenn 75% davon künftig vorwiegend aus Ethanol kommen soll, wäre das ein Markt von über 175 Milliarden US-Dollar.

Anders ausgedrückt: Alleine in den USA würde der Ethanolmarkt von derzeit 95 Mio. Barrel um bis zu 2900% wachsen!

Haben Sie eine Vorstellung was es bedeutet wenn ein Markt von seinem jetzigen Niveau aus um bis zu 2900% wächst?

Wenn Sie in den 80er Jahren den PC Boom verpasst haben und in den 90ern den Internethype oder aktuell den Solarboom:

Macht nichts, hier können Sie ganz früh dabei sein!

Doch zögern Sie nicht, der Zug rollt bereits aus dem Bahnhof und nimmt Fahrt auf. Springen Sie jetzt auf um nicht nur die roten Schlussleuchten zu sehen!

Die USA haben kürzlich den Energy Policy Act verabschiedet, welcher einen Mindestanteil von 5% Ethanol in Kraftstoffen bis 2012 vorsieht. Dies zwingt Öl-Multis wie Exxon Mobile & Co ihren Ethanolverbrauch nahezu zu verdoppeln, wodurch Ethanol-Raffinerien zum ersten Mal in der Geschichte ein Markt garantiert ist!

Wie schaut es in Europa aus? Nicht anders!

Die Liste an Argumenten für Ethanol ist noch lange nicht erschöpft, aber es ist schon jetzt ersichtlich, welche bedeutende Rolle Ethanol in unserer Zukunft spielen wird. Wer als Investor heute auf das richtige Pferd setzt, kann ein Vermögen verdienen. Was läge da näher als ein Unternehmen, welches jetzt noch klein ist, aber womöglich schon bald dem größten Produzenten der USA ernsthafte Konkurrenz macht?

PACIFIC ETHANOL COMPLETES CONSTRUCTION OF FIRST PLANT
Madera Plant to Add Ethanol and Distillers Grain Sales to Existing Marketing Revenue
October 9, 2006, – Fresno, CA – Pacific Ethanol, Inc. (NASDAQ:PEIX) today announced the
completion of its first ethanol production facility in Madera, California. A ribbon cutting ceremony
to take place on October 16th. The plant will commence the start up process the next day, and is
expected to be operating at its nameplate capacity of 35 million gallons per year by mid
November, 2006.
“This is a significant milestone for Pacific Ethanol. The startup of the Madera Plant will contribute
ethanol production revenues during the 4th quarter of this year, ahead of our internal target date,”
observed Neil Koehler, CEO of Pacific Ethanol, Inc. “We anticipate it will take roughly thirty days
to bring the plant up to full capacity, and that from mid-November forward the plant will be
producing ethanol at or above our designed level of 35 million gallons per year. Our second plant
in Boardman, Oregon remains on schedule for completion by the end of the second quarter of
2007.”
Koehler concluded by noting, “We remain on schedule to develop 220 million gallons of
production capacity by the middle of 2008 and 420 million gallons by the end of 2010.”
Chairman Bill Jones thanked all who contributed to the completion. “On behalf of the board and
stockholders of Pacific Ethanol, I would like to extend express my sincere gratitude to the County
of Madera, W.M. Lyles Co., Delta–T Corporation, and the Local Building Trades for getting this
job completed in a professional and efficient manner. Their collective efforts assured our success.
About Pacific Ethanol, Inc.
Pacific Ethanol has two ethanol plants currently under construction, one in Madera County, CA
and one in Boardman, OR and recently completed equity funding of $138 million to provide the
Company with sufficient cash to both accelerate its stated goal of completing five ethanol
production facilities totaling 220 million gallons per year by mid year 2008 and its plans to
complete additional ethanol production facilities, increasing total nameplate capacity to 420
million gallons per year by the end of 2010. Pacific Ethanol, through its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Kinergy Marketing, LLC, is the largest West Coast-based marketer of ethanol. In addition, Pacific

nun ich interessiere mich auch für den Titel, nur sehe ich derzeit einige Menge Gründe, die mir einen Einstieg - zumindest vorerst - überlegenswert machen.
der Maispreis liegt derzeit bei ca. 300 cents/Scheffel und ich glaube das ist noch lange nicht das Ende der Fahnenstange (all-time-high 1996: 516). Grund sind 2 Faktoren a) die Nachfrage der Ethanolindustrie (+35 % jedes Jahr) b) der "crop-change" von corn auf wheat der US-Bauern auf den Anbauflächen und den damit rückläufigen Ertragsergebnis 2007
weiters wirkt die Verteuerung des 2 wichtigen Rohstoffs in der Ethanolindustrie - der Erdgas - auch nicht gerade positiv auf die Margen (geschätzt sind derzeit 1,2 - 1,4 Dollar pro Gallone)

ich finde interessant wird sein, welche Zahlen wirklich nach einem Quartal im Produktionsbetrieb vorgelegt werden können, andererseits wenn diese passabel sind, wird sich ein Einstieg nicht mehr lohnen - ein Dilemma

Pacific Ethanol Acquires 42% of Front Range Energy, LLC and Extends Marketing Contract

FRESNO, Calif., Oct. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Pacific Ethanol Inc. today announced the acquisition from Eagle Energy, LLC of a 42% minority interest in Front Range Energy, LLC ("Front Range"), the owner of a 40 million gallon nameplate ethanol plant located in Windsor, Colorado.

The ICM-designed Front Range facility is currently running at an annual production rate of 47 million gallons. The plant began full production in June 2006.

Pacific Ethanol purchased 10,095 Class B Voting Units, representing a 42% interest in Front Range, in exchange for $30 million in cash, 2,081,888 shares of Pacific Ethanol common stock, and a warrant to purchase up to 693,963 shares of common stock at any time before October 17, 2007 at an exercise price of $14.41 per share. The number of shares issued to Eagle Energy was calculated to have a value of $30 million, based on the average of the closing prices of Pacific Ethanol's common stock for the 10 trading days preceding the closing, and has a value as of closing of $35,975,000 based on today's closing price of $17.28 per share. The exercise price of the warrant was based on the average of the closing prices of Pacific Ethanol's common stock for the 10 trading days preceding the closing. The securities sold in this private placement have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the United States in the absence of an effective registration statement or exemption from registration requirements. Pacific Ethanol has agreed to file a resale registration statement on Form S-3 within 10 days after the closing of the transaction for the purpose of registering the resale of the shares of common stock issued at the closing and the shares of common stock underlying the warrant.

Pacific Ethanol and Front Range already have a significant relationship, announced upon the completion of Front Range's plant in June 2006, pursuant to which Pacific Ethanol markets all of the output of the plant (fuel ethanol and wet distillers grain), procures the corn feedstock, and manages plant operations. As a part of Pacific Ethanol's purchase of an ownership stake in Front Range, the parties have extended the term of the ethanol marketing agreement until June 9, 2013.

Neil Koehler, President and CEO of Pacific Ethanol stated, "This transaction is immediately accretive to earnings and accelerates our goal to be the leading ethanol producer in the western US. Our acquisition of a stake in Front Range in effect adds approximately 20 million gallons to our annual operating production capacity. This represents a significant step in achieving our stated annual production capacity targets of 220 million gallons by the middle of 2008 and 420 million gallons by the end of 2010. This agreement further cements our close working relationship with Front Range Energy. And finally, as this plant supplies local markets for both fuel and feed, obviating the need to ship our product long distances, it is also a perfect fit with Pacific Ethanol's low cost destination business model."

Front Range Energy's majority owner, Dan Sanders, said, "We are delighted to have Pacific Ethanol as a partner in this operation, given our existing relationship and their proven expertise in the production and marketing of ethanol and feed products in the western US. Pacific Ethanol's ownership in our company also strengthens our position as we evaluate a potential expansion of the Windsor plant and other new production opportunities."

About Pacific Ethanol, Inc.

Pacific Ethanol has an ethanol plant in Madera County, California which has recently been completed and is undergoing startup, and a second plant under construction in Boardman, Oregon. Pacific Ethanol's goal is to become the leading producer and marketer of renewable fuels in the western US. Central to its growth strategy is its destination business model, whereby each respective ethanol plant achieves lower process and transportation costs by servicing local markets for both fuel and feed. In May 2006, Pacific Ethanol completed an equity funding of $138 million which provided the Company with sufficient cash to both accelerate its stated goal of completing five ethanol production facilities totaling 220 million gallons of capacity per year by the middle of 2008 and its plans to complete additional ethanol production facilities, increasing total capacity to 420 million gallons per year by the end of 2010. Pacific Ethanol, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Kinergy Marketing, LLC, is the largest West Coast-based marketer of ethanol. In addition, Pacific Ethanol is working to identify and develop other renewable fuel technologies such as cellulose-based ethanol production and bio-diesel.

About Front Range Energy

Front Range Energy owns an ethanol plant in Windsor CO with nameplate annual capacity of 40 million gallons. The majority owner of Front Range is Dan Sanders. The plant was designed by ICM, a leading technology company.

Pacific Ethanol Purchase Adds Capacity
Wednesday October 18, 10:13 am ET
Pacific Ethanol Buys Stake in Front Range Ethanol Plant; Adds 20 Million Gallons of Capacity

FRESNO, Calif. (AP) -- Pacific Ethanol Inc., an ethanol producer, on Wednesday said it acquired a minority interest in Front Range Energy LLC from Eagle Energy LLC in a combination cash-and-stock deal worth more than $60 million.

The company said it gained a 42 percent stake in Front Range in exchange for $30 million in cash, 2.1 million shares of Pacific Ethanol, and a warrant to purchase up to 693,963 additional shares before Oct. 17, 2007, for $14.41 per share.

The company said the number of shares issued to Eagle Energy are worth $30 million.

Pacific Ethanol said the deal would add to earnings immediately and boost its annual operating production capacity by 20 million gallons. The company has targeted annual production of 220 million gallons by the middle of 2008 and 420 million gallons by the end of 2010.

Last week, Pacific Ethanol completed its first ethanol plant and expected to start operations on Tuesday. Production at the Madera, Calif., plant should reach 35 million gallons per year by mid-November, the company said.

Pacific Ethanol said a second plant in Oregon remains on schedule for completion by the end of the second quarter of next year.

Front Range operates a 40-million-gallon ethanol plant in Windsor, Colo. It began full production in June and currently runs at an annual production capacity of 47 million gallons.

As part of the deal, Pacific Ethanol and Eagle Energy extended the terms of an existing ethanol marketing agreement to 2013.

Shares of Pacific Ethanol fell 7 cents to $17.21 in morning trading on the Nasdaq.

Heute erreicht die Aktie die 15,77 $ Marke und stabilisiert sich intraday zunächst. Hier bietet sich nun die Chance einer Trendwende nach oben hin. Über 17,50 $ sollte ein Anstieg bis 18,52 und darüber 20,00 - 20,55 $ erfolgen. Über 20,55 $ liegen die mittelfristigen Ziele bei 33,50 und 44,50 $. Fällt die Aktie hingegen per Tagesschluss unter das heutige Tief bei 15,49 $ zurück, ist eine Ausdehnung der Abwärtskorrektur bis 14,20 - 14,74 $ wahrscheinlich.

24.10.2006 12:00:00 (BUSINESS WIRE)
Zacks Analyst Interview Highlights: VeraSun, Archer-Daniels Midland, Pacific Ethanol and Aventine

Zacks.com releases the latest Analyst Interview. Today's interview is with senior analyst Paul Cohen, who discusses VeraSun (NYSE:VSE), Archer-Daniels Midland (NYSE:ADM), Pacific Ethanol (Nasdaq:PEIX) and Aventine (NYSE:AVR).

A synopsis of today's Analyst Interview is presented below. The full article can be read at http://at.zacks.com/?id=2678.

Do you see a strong future for ethanol companies?

The overall impetus for ethanol is strong and will continue to be strong. Ultimately, the ethanol business will convert to cellulose - the technology is not quite there at this time, but in three-to-four years it will be - and this will bring down the cost of manufacturing and producing ethanol.

The other driver in the industry is the firing of ethanol plants with coal rather than natural gas. This will make the companies more profitable, and the financing of the industry will go to the low-cost producer. Not now, however; I'm thinking this will be over the next two or three years.

I do expect these smaller ethanol companies will be the energy industry large-caps of the next generation. This fuel is the real deal. We anticipate these companies to grow to $1-2 billion in market cap, and estimate we may see $6-7 billion by 2015 or so.

We've never seen the potential for growth in this industry like this before. Also, the big companies will no doubt buy out the little guys. Right now there are 14 publicly traded ethanol companies and 31 private companies. I expect we'll see the privates getting bought up. The game is financing. And who is Wellington going to write the check for? The lowest-cost producer.

As businesses, are they being run efficiently at this point?

I think VeraSun (NYSE:VSE) is one of the best-run ethanol companies in the U.S. It is also the second-largest, I believe. They have really copied the Archer-Daniels Midland (NYSE:ADM) model for running an ethanol business. Pacific Ethanol (Nasdaq:PEIX) just bought a 42% stake in a private ethanol company. Their plants are smaller than those anticipated at VeraSun and Aventine (NYSE:AVR), but Pacific is commanding market share in California. Long-term, I see Pacific being attractive, and I look for them to expand their business outside of California.

Overall, we would accumulate positions in ethanol stocks at these levels. We're not sure where the bottom is, but the upside on a long-term basis is considerable. The road may not be smooth for growth in this industry in the near term, but ultimately we see the need for ethanol to be overwhelming. The industry also has important political backing on both sides of the aisle.

Infos vom 19.08.2006

Want (even more) proof that ethanol is on the rise? Pacific Ethanol would like to show you that its profits in the second quarter of 2006 (net sales of $46.5 million) were about double those of the second quarter of 2005 ($22.8 million). Interestingly, the amazing increase in profits came with only a 27 percent increase in gallons of ethanol sold. (Q2 2005 was 15.6 million, Q2 2006 was 19.8 million). The company's average ethanol price rose by 99 cents per gallon in that time period. All this good news for the company means more ethanol plants. Pacific Ethanol will build three new plants in two Western states and will have a total annual production capacity of 220 million gallons by the middle of 2008.

Biofuels industry growing at 25 to 50 percent annually

Research and Markets has released its first Biofuels Production report. The industry includes about 200 companies with combined annual revenue of $3 billion. Most companies are under $10 milion in revenue, but major firms such as Archer Daniels Midland, Cargill, BP and Chevron are also listed. The report says biofuels is a young industry and is growing at a rate of 25 to 50 percent each year. It also sees new entrants coming in and frequent technology breakthroughs. With federal and state subsidies and loan guanrantees, there are few barriers to those entering the field. On a positive note, the reports sees strong demand based on new regulations that mandate a market for biofuels.

Hallo "Weichweizen" :,
den Chart kann ich Dir leider auch nicht erklären - aber ganz allgemein sehe ich, daß Bewegung in die Branche kommt und zunehmend Investoren und Anleger von Risikokapital hellhörig werden.
So findet bezeichnender Weise am 21. und 22. Nov. in London die Konferenz von Agra London "Biofuels Finance and Investment" statt (ED, 21. 10. 06).
Endlich mal Hersteller, Anlagenbauer Fahrzeugindustrie und , wie gesagt, die Finanzseite! Mehr dazu unter www.agra-net.com, Stichwort "Conference"
Grüße an alle!

@ Robbi
@ alle

grundsätzlich wird sich nicht nur Risikokapital in die Entwicklung der NAWARO-Unternehemen einmischen, sondern auch ganz entspannte Langzeitinvestoren. Denn der Energiekonflikt (die zunehmend knapperen fossielen Rohstoffe) betrifft alle!!! Und Umweltschutz wollen auch alle!!!

Nur ist der Bedarf an erneuerbaren Energien regional verschieden - und in diesem Aspekt sollte der Investor Global denken. Die USA ist ein gewaltiger Energieschlucker der Welt. Dort gibt es allerdings genügend Produktionskapazitäten.

In (West)Europa ist das anders zu sehen. Wenn man sich den Weizenmarkt anschaut, wird einiges erkennbar. Hier wurde ein richiges Ventil für Übermengen geöffnet. Und mit einem Mal war der Weizen knapp und der Preis stieg!!

Dies sollte auch in Bezug zum Biotreibstoff bedacht werden.

Subventionierung von Ethanol-Tankstellen durch den Staat Kalifornien:

DOE Selects Group Including GM For E85 Ethanol Program

DOW JONES NEWSWIRES

The Department of Energy said Tuesday it will give a $495,000 grant to a group that includes General Motors Corp. (GM), Pacific Ethanol Inc. (PEIX) and United Oil to help fund the creation of 15 E85 ethanol stations in California.

The total cost of the project is estimated at $2.4 million.

With the initial round of funding, the CalStart group said it will build 10 E85 stations at existing gas stations owned by United Oil in the greater Los Angeles area.

According to CalStart, there is currently only one public station that sells E85 ethanol in California, even though the state has more than 300,000 cars capable of running on the fuel.

wird auch Zeit das man nun endlich in Kalifornien ein, wenn auch kleines, E85 Netz aufbaut. Im Gegensatz zum Nordosten der USA muss man als Autofahrer im Westen und Süden seine Route sorgfältig planen, wenn man E85 tanken will :O

so schaut es zur Zeit in den USA su mit E85

es gab gestern einen interessanten Kommentar von Julie Hudson von UBS Investment Research. Der Sieg der Demokraten wird sich vor allem für Firmen rund um alternative Energien bezahlt machen, das sie mit massiven Subventionen und Steuernachlässen für diesen Sektor rechnet. Die jüngste Kampagne von John Kerry macht deutlich das man es im demokratischen Lager etwas ernster mit dem globalen Klimawandel nimmt als die Bush Regierung. Der alternative Energie Sektor könnte in Zukunft wieder richt heiß laufen und den Ölstocks davon rennen

Scheint ja heut weiter nach oben zu laufen. Vorbörslicher Kurs bei den amis 18,40$ +3,6%!!!
Bin ja kein Profi auf dem Gebiet, aber denk mir das überschreiten der 18,0$ Marke unter einem hohen Umsatz wäre kurzfristig erstmal viel für den weiteren Aufwärtstrend wert!?
Was sagt ihr zu dem Thema!?
Gibts eigentlich irgend welche news die den Anstieg der letzten Tage untermauern, oder is dass nur dem Wahlsieg der Demokraten zu verdanken??

Aktueller Tageschart (log) seit Oktober 2005 (1 Kerze = 1 Tag)

Rückblick: Die Pacific Ethanol Aktie befindet sich seit Anfang 2003 in einer Aufwärtsbewegung. Nachdem sie in 2005 lediglich seitwärts pendelte, gelang dieses Jahr der Ausbruch nach oben und eine Rallye (Paris: FR0000060618 - Nachrichten) bis auf ein neues AllTimeHigh bei 44,50 $ im Mai. Anschließend folgte eine heftige Abwärtskorrektur bis an das Ausbruchslevel bei 12,50 - 13,50 $, wo sie sich aktuell stabilisiert. Das kurzfristige Chartbild ist noch bärisch, das mittelfristige weiter bullisch.

Charttechnischer Ausblick: Der Anstieg in dieser Woche könnte der Auftakt für eine neue Aufwärtsbewegung sein. Ein Kaufsignal wird jetzt bei einem Anstieg über die Oberkante des Abwärtstrendkanals und des EMA50 bei 16,44 $ ausgelöst. Die Aufwärtsziele liegen dann bei 20,00 - 20,55 und darüber bei 33,50 und 44,50 $. Fällt die Aktie hingegen unter 12,50 $ zurück, werden mittelfristig weitere Kursverluste bis 6,00 - 7,80 $ wahrscheinlich.

Wall Street plant ohne Bush
05.11.2006 Ausgabe 45/06


Unternehmen WKN
n/a
Ein Sieg der Demokraten bei der US-Kongresswahl am Dienstag gilt als ausgemacht. Welche Folgen der Politikwechsel an der Börse haben wird
von Günter Heismann

Lügen, Rufmord, Sexgeschichten – die USA erleben derzeit den schmutzigsten Wahlkampf seit
Jahrzehnten. Bei den gegenseitigen Beschimpfungen tun sich vor allem die regierenden
Republikaner hervor. Doch auch die Demokraten keilen gern zurück. Nachdem der einstige
Präsidentschaftskandidat John Kerry die US-Soldaten im Irak verunglimpft hatte, zog sich der
Oppositionspolitiker vorige Woche sogar aus dem Wahlkampf zurück.
Ungeachtet der Schlammschlacht scheint sicher, dass die Demokraten am Dienstag als klare
Sieger aus den Kongresswahlen hervorgehen. Ungewiss ist derzeit nur, ob die Opposition künftig
in beiden Häusern des Kongresses, also im Senat und im Repräsentantenhaus, die Mehrheit
stellen wird.
Viele Beobachter deuten die sich abzeichnende hohe Niederlage der Republikaner bereits als
Signal, dass auch bei den Präsidentenwahlen in zwei Jahren George W. Bush von einem
Demokraten abgelöst wird. Mit einem Machtwechsel im Weißen Haus wäre ein tiefgreifender
Wandel in der Wirtschaftspolitik zu erwarten, der bereits nach den Wahlen am Dienstag seine
Auswirkungen an der Wall Street zeigen dürfte. Am stärksten von einem Sieg der Demokraten ist
voraussichtlich die Pharmabranche betroffen. „Das wäre ein weiterer negativer Punkt für den
Sektor, der bereits unter anhaltendem Kostendruck steht“, stellt Volker Dosch fest, Leiter des
Teams für US-Aktien bei der Frankfurter Fondsgesellschaft DWS.
Vor allem die demokratische Senatorin Hillary Clinton tritt entschieden für eine Beschneidung der
Gesundheits-kosten ein, die in den USA ebenso aus dem Ruder laufen wie bei uns. Den
Arzneimittelherstellern drohen aber nicht nur strengere Preiskontrollen. Sie müssen auch mit
schärferen Verfahren bei der Zulassung neuer Präparate rechnen. In jüngster Zeit gab es in den
USA mehrere Arzneimittelskandale, die auf eine zu laxe Genehmigungspraxis zurückgeführt
werden. So soll das Rheumamittel Vioxx des Pharmakonzerns Merck für zahlreiche Todesfälle
durch Herzinfarkt verantwortlich sein.
Allerdings ist fraglich, wie schnell die Demokraten im Kongress ihre Vorstellungen durchsetzen
können. Denn Präsident Bush kann, bis er 2008 aus dem Amt scheidet, gegen jede
Gesetzesänderung sein Veto einlegen. Zudem ist unklar, wie stark eine Gesundheitsreform die
Pharmawerte belasten wird. „Der Sektor hat bereits eine sehr starke und lange Korrektur hinter
sich. Die schlechten Nachrichten sind weitgehend eingepreist“, gibt Fondsmanager Dosch zu
bedenken.

Von der schärferen Regulierung des Pharmamarkts wären vor allem die forschenden
Arzneimittelhersteller wie Merck, Pfizer und Ely Lilly betroffen. „Hingegen werden die Anbieter von
Generika, von preiswerten Nachahmerpräparaten, von strengeren Preiskontrollen profitieren“, sagt
Christian Schneider, Portfoliomanager bei der Frankfurter Fondsgesellschaft dit. Besonders gut
im Geschäft mit Generika sind in den USA die Firma Mylan und ihr israelischer Konkurrent Teva.
Neben der Pharmaindustrie kann insbesondere auf die Rüstungsproduzenten Ungemach
zukommen. Es ist erklärtes Ziel der Demokraten, Amerikas Rolle als Weltpolizist zu reduzieren
und die Rüstungsbudgets zu beschränken. „Eine Kürzung der Verteidigungsausgaben ist am
ehesten bei Panzern, Kriegsschiffen und Munition zu erwarten“, sagt Experte Schneider.
Hingegen würden die Demokraten es kaum wagen, die Prestigeprojekte der Luftwaffe anzutasten.
Aerospace ist eine Hightech-Industrie und gilt als nationale Ikone.
Hingegen wollen die Demokraten die Homeland Security ausbauen, also Maßnahmen zum
Schutz vor Terroranschlägen im eigenen Land. Hier versucht die Opposition die regierenden
Republikaner noch zu übertreffen. Ein Kernelement der Homeland Security sind Anlagen zum
Screening der Passagiere auf Flughäfen. Führende Lieferanten solcher Systeme sind der
Aerospace-Konzern Raytheon und das Spezialunternehmen L-3 Communications.
Neue Belastungen könnten bei einem Sieg der Demokraten auch auf die Energie-Unternehmen
zukommen. In der Oppositionspartei ist eine Diskussion darüber entbrannt, ob die exorbitant
hohen Gewinne der Ölkonzerne nicht durch eine Sondersteuer abgeschöpft werden sollten. Unter
Beschuss wird nach der Wahl voraussichtlich speziell der Ölzulieferer Halliburton geraten, mit
dem Vizepräsident Dick Cheney eng verbandelt ist. Seit Langem verlangt die Opposition die
Einsetzung eines Untersuchungsausschusses, um die umstrittenen Aktivitäten von Halliburton im
Irak aufzuklären.

Vor allem aber fordern demokratische Politiker wie Al Gore, endlich auch in den USA die
Emission von Treibhausgasen und anderen Schadstoffen drastisch zu reduzieren. Unter einer
schärferen Klima- und Umweltpolitik hätten vor allem die Öl-, Gas- und Kohlelieferanten zu leiden.
Doch auch die Stromerzeuger müssten hohe Kosten aufwenden, um die Emissionen zu
verringern, etwa durch den Einbau von Filtern in die Kraftwerke.
Hingegen würden die Demokraten die Anbieter von alternativen Energien stärker fördern. Die
Solarindustrie ist in den USA weit weniger entwickelt als etwa in Deutschland. Anders als bei
uns wird die Sonnenenergie in den Vereinigten Staaten bisher kaum subventioniert. Bei der
Nutzung der Windkraft aber haben die Amerikaner aufgeholt. Auch für die Hersteller von
Bioethanol, das aus Getreide gewonnen und dem Benzin beigemischt wird, sehen viele
Beobachter einen weiteren Aufschwung voraus. Führende Anbieter sind die Getreidekonzerne
Bunge und Archer Daniels Midlands sowie das Unternehmen Pacific Ethanol.

Auch die Banken müssen womöglich mit einer schärferen Regulierung bei der
Konsumentenfinanzierung rechnen. Millionen Haushalte, denen die Institute allzu leichtfertig
Kredite aufgeschwatzt haben, sind hoffnungslos überschuldet. „Daher sind in den USA strengere
Auflagen für die Darlehensvergabe denkbar“, sagt Fondsmanager Frank Ebersbach von Deka
Investments.
Schließlich haben sich die Demokraten dem Kampf gegen Fehlernährung und Übergewicht
verschrieben, unter dem Amerikaner stärker leiden als die meisten anderen Industrienationen.
Genaue Pläne gibt es zwar noch nicht. Doch ein Wahlsieg der Opposition wäre eine schlechte
Nachricht für Burger-Ketten, Pizzaläden und andere Anbieter von Fast Food. Auch die Hersteller
von Fertiggerichten, die mit reichlich Fett und Zucker schmackhaft gemacht werden, werden
womöglich unter sinkenden Umsätzen leiden.
Generell wollen die Demokraten die Klagerechte der Konsumenten ausweiten – gleich ob es um
Gesundheitsschäden durch Asbest, Medikamente oder Tabak, um verweigerte
Versicherungsleistungen oder um Schikanen am Arbeitsplatz geht wie angeblich bei der
Supermarktkette Wal-Mart. „Die Demokraten haben eine starke Juristen-Lobby“, so US-Experte
Schneider.
Voraussichtlich überhaupt nicht betroffen vom Ausgang der Kongresswahlen sind dagegen
Amerikas Hightech-Industrien, denen eine Sonderkonjunktur bevorsteht. Microsoft bringt 2007
sein neues Betriebssystem heraus. Auch die Anbieter von Spielekonsolen warten mit einer Fülle
von Novitäten auf. Fondsmanager Ebersbach erwartet, dass der Sektor in den USA seine
Gewinne im nächsten Jahr um 18 Prozent steigert. „Die Hightech-Industrien werden das höchste
Gewinnwachstum aller Sektoren erzielen.“

Pacific Ethanol Announces Delay in Reporting Third Quarter Results

FRESNO, Calif., Nov. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Pacific Ethanol, (Nachrichten) Inc. today announced the delay in the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. As a result, the Company will file a Form 12b-25 notification of late filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company delayed the filing of its Form 10-Q because management needs additional time to complete the financial disclosures in the report. The Company expects to file its Form 10-Q with the SEC by Monday, November 20th.

Further, the Company stated that results for the third quarter showed strong growth. During the quarter, the Company achieved record revenue, record gallon volumes and expects to report profitability for the first time. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, the Company began ethanol production at its first facility located in Madera, California and purchased a minority position in an existing ethanol facility in Windsor, Colorado.

CEO Neil Koehler commented, "As our Company has grown larger and more complex, our financial reporting capabilities have strained to keep pace. This situation is not acceptable. Management is focused on the problem and is committed to ensuring that the Company meets required reporting in a timely fashion in future periods. The Company continues to execute well on its business plan, which will be apparent when our Form 10-Q for the third quarter is filed."

About Pacific Ethanol, Inc.

Pacific Ethanol owns and operates an ethanol plant in Madera County, California, is constructing a second plant in Boardman, Oregon and owns a 42% interest in Front Range Energy, LLC which owns and operates an ethanol plant in Windsor, Colorado. Pacific Ethanol's goal is to become the leading marketer and producer of renewable fuels in the Western United States. In May 2006, Pacific Ethanol completed an equity funding of $138 million which provided the Company with sufficient cash to both accelerate its stated goal of completing five ethanol production facilities totaling 220 million gallons of capacity per year by the middle of 2008 and its plans to complete additional ethanol production facilities, increasing total capacity to 420 million gallons per year by the end of 2010. Pacific Ethanol, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Kinergy Marketing, LLC, is the largest West Coast-based marketer of ethanol.

Ich denke (hoffentlich) wird es kein großen Kursrücksetzer mehr geben, da der Zug die Fahrt aufgenommen hat

Wenn erst die Zahlen zum 3. Quartal raus kommen geht es mit dem Kurs ab dann werden wir auch Kurse um die € 15,70 sehen und der Wiederstand um die € 15,70 ist dann Geschichte.

The Andersons, Inc. and Marathon to Build Greenville, Ohio, Ethanol Plant
Thursday November 16, 7:00 am ET

HOUSTON and MAUMEE, Ohio, Nov. 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Marathon Oil Corporation (NYSE: MRO - News) and The Andersons, Inc. (Nasdaq: ANDE - News), today jointly announced that the companies will immediately begin construction of an ethanol plant located in Greenville, Ohio.

The Greenville site will be the first to be constructed by The Andersons Marathon Ethanol LLC, a 50/50 joint venture between The Andersons, Inc. and Marathon Petroleum Company LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Marathon Oil Corporation.

The joint venture closed the purchase of property in September and received approval by the Greenville City Council for ordinances allowing zoning changes necessary for construction and extension of the enterprise zone that will support tax abatements for the project. The project recently received Ohio EPA approval for an air permit needed for plant operation.

The facility will have the annual capacity to produce 110 million gallons of ethanol and 350,000 tons of distillers dried grain (DDG), an animal feed ingredient. The facility could be operational as soon as the first quarter of 2008, employing a workforce of 40 employees.

[Zackes1]

Kurs will einfach nicht die 20 Dollar nehmen. Ist das der Abpraller nach oben, die Trendwende der Trendwende, oder nur Gewinnmitnahme?

[03676]

Der Widerstand (hier bei $ 20,00) wird in der Regel nicht beim erstenmal genommen. Bedarf sicherlich weitere Anläufe.

Ich würde mal tippen: das es sich NUR um Gewinn-mitnahmen handelt
(da wir gestern über 12% in der Spitze angestiegen sind - in $ gerechnet)

Erst wenn die Zahlen zum 3. Quartal raus kommen (erstmal ein Gewinn - in der frühen Firmengeschichte) werden wir deutlich höhrere Kurse sehen.
