POET Also Has Many Plants In Iowa

edit

Except for the mention of the Emmetsburg, Iowa cellulosic plant to be constructed, Iowa does not seem to be mentioned as a state with POET plants. It is, in fact, one of the main POET states, according to their own web site. See <a href=http://www.poetenergy.com/about/plants.asp>www.poetenergy.com/about/plants.asp</a>. I am a novice at HTML and a rank novice at editing wikipedia articles. I also realize that this is on POET's own web site, but something like the location of a plant should be independently verifiable. I just don't know where to find information like this. Could someone please fix the article for me? Thanks. Kb0ula (talk) 12:38, 27 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Well, within the last five weeks I've driven by the plants in Lake Crystal and Bingham Lake, Minnesota and Gowrie, Ashton, and Jewell, Iowa. At other times I've also seen the plants at Hanlontown and Emmetsburg, Iowa. --Aflafla1 (talk) 19:17, 27 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

1. The reference to poetenergy.com in the article (External Links) should be changed to poet.com, as the website is set up to use poet.com as the primary domain, with poetenergy.com as an alias, and all branding by the company is now focused on poet.com, with poetenergy.com being the old domain.

2. While inclusion in the "Alcohol fuel" category is appropriate, it is unnecessarily vague and could be appended/replaced by a reference to the Wikipedia category: Ethanol fuel

3. References to the cellulosic ethanol plant should be updated, as A) it is being pursued under a joint venture between POET and Royal DSM ("POET-DSM")[1], and the federal loan guarantee secured for the project was declined by POET[2], which is significant.

4. Under KEY PEOPLE, Jeff Broin should no longer be listed as CEO; he is the current Executive Chairman of POET's board of directors, and Jeff Lautt (previously president) is the CEO as of April 2012. [3].

I'd appreciate verification and execution of these edits!

Notes

edit

Liberty Project "Remains On Schedule" for opening. (insert new date here)

edit

This is P.R. bullshit. The schedule slips and yet each time the company announces its opening 'remains on schedule'. --66.41.154.0 (talk) 23:56, 18 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Request: Logo Change

The logo shown contains an obsolete tagline "Energy Inspired". The most up-to-date tagline is "Human + Nature" and is visible in a more appropriate file: http://poet.com/poet_logo.png — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bhauge (talkcontribs) 23:01, 5 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
