Dutch-based FreezOil. a bidder for the purchase of the BRSM-Nafta gas stations, is mulling the construction of a bioethanol factory in Cherkasy region, Cherkasy Regional State Administration said on its website.
"We consider Cherkasy region as a priority one... First of all, we are attracted by volumes of maize production there, because it is needed for the production of bioethanol," the administration's press service quoted Chairman of FreezOil's Board of Directors Roland Pieper as saying.
According FreezOil, its plans include the construction of three plants in Ukraine to produce bioethanol. The projects are estimated at $100-150 million each.
