and the European renewable ethanol industry as a whole, by:
Providing a platform for sharing knowledge and insight on evolving industry developments
Working towards the improvement of the international economic and legal environment in which the industry operates
Providing accurate and timely information to members, policymakers, the media and the general public
Speaking authoritatively for the renewable ethanol industry at key international events
