Three Rivers Energy looking to reopen late this summer
Ethanol plant to make materials use in hand sanitizers and hygiene products
Upgrades are now underway related to producing materials for a hand sanitizer and hygiene products maker.
Three Rivers Energy started as the Coshocton Ethanol Plant in 2008. It shutdown after 10 months. C.E. Acquisitions, a partnership of Lakeview Energy and Crestwood Energy of Illinois, acquired the biofuels refinery in 2013. It previously produced ethanol, distillers grains to feed livestock and corn oil.
The plant closed in October 2019 due to an unsure corn crop and policies of the Donald Trump presidential administration hurting the industry. In July 2020, company CEO Jim Galvin said the COVID-19 pandemic derailed reopening plans. They once had 40 workers and a few employees were kept to monitor and maintain the plant.
