據ICIS網站3月25日消息 美國燃料乙醇價格本周繼續大幅下跌，并創下又一個歷史新低。

燃料乙醇的供應仍然充足，而隨著該行業需求持續攀升，一些生產商正轉向工業乙醇生產。

夏季駕駛季節的狀況仍然存在疑問，從而阻礙了需求，燃料乙醇的需求旺季為夏季。

據消息人士稱，燃料乙醇需求幾乎減半，目前美國45%的燃料需求都在家完成訂購。

美國乙醇生產商開始減少燃料乙醇的生產，隨著疫情繼續對燃料市場造成壓力，并增加對消毒劑生產的需求，一些乙醇生產商正將注意力轉移至工業生產上。

US ethanol prices set a new record low, industrial demand continues to strengthen

US fuel ethanol prices continued to fall sharply this week and set yet another record low.

Supply of fuel ethanol remains ample while some producers are switching to industrial ethanol production as demand from that sector continues to climb.

The state of the summer driving season remains in question, which is hampering demand. Fuel ethanol's peak demand season is the summer.

Fuel ethanol demand is almost halved, according to sources, as 45% of fuel demand is currently on stay at home orders in the US.

US ethanol producers are starting to reduce production of fuel ethanol and some are shifting their focus to industrial production as the coronavirus continues to pressure fuel markets and increasing the need for sanitiser production.
