GEM Fuel Terminal coming to a Neighborhood near you! This is the future Folks and there is a reason they are calling it "Gateway"! Its a Gateway into the future and the way Alternative Fuel Terminals will operate.

Methanol blending provides a large octane contribution to refiners that can then reduce process energy consumption. For automakers, methanol contains oxygen for cleaner fuel combustion, a lower boiling temperature for better fuel vaporization, and a higher blending octane for smoother burning with reduced “knock.” This last point has become a critical issue for the automotive industry, which is increasingly recognizing the benefit of using more alcohol. Methanol's high octane facilitates higher engine efficiencies to meet fuel economy goals.
Methanol also provides an incentive to the gasoline terminal blender to upgrade other low octane gasoline blendstocks available in the gasoline supply market at a much lower cost!
