Tennessee Corn Invests in Fuel Pump Conversion Program

The Tennessee Corn Promotion Board (TCPB) established the Fuel Pump Conversion Program to promote, expand, and develop the ethanol blended fuels market. This program assists retail fueling stations with the costs of converting pumps to or installing new ethanol flex fuel pumps. 

TCPB understands the need to develop markets for environmentally friendly, renewable, American-made ethanol blended fuels and seeks to provide consumers with a fuel choice at the pump. 

Conversion or installation of pumps dispensing E15 also qualifies for this grant program with the same conditions and requirements.  

The Program will award select fuel retailing stations grants to be used toward the purchase and installation of an ethanol flex fuel (blender) pump, hardware, and storage tank or the conversion of an existing pump to a blender pump that meets program criteria.  

Grants are available to new or existing stations located in Tennessee.
