CI Score Expert: Dr. Steffen Mueller

The CC Crew welcomes Dr. Steffen Mueller, Professor at the University of Illinois Chicago! Dr. Mueller has an extensive background in lifecycle modeling of energy systems. Dr. Mueller discusses how Carbon Intensity (CI) scoring works, who it applies to, and the implications of a favorable score. At detail, the conversation focuses on the ethanol industry, both domestically and globally, and how CO2 is key to accessing markets regulated by a low carbon fuel standard.

CO2 sequestration improves a carbon intensity score... so, what does this mean for CO2 currently being supplied to the existing users in the market? You’ll have to listen to find out!
