To the Stockholders of Gevo, Inc.:

The 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Gevo, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) will be held at 2:00 p.m., Mountain Time, on Wednesday, May 21, 2025. The Annual Meeting will be held entirely online via live audio webcast to allow for greater stockholder attendance and to reduce the carbon footprint that is required for travel to, and in-person attendance at, the Annual Meeting. The Annual Meeting may be accessed atwww.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/GEVO2025, where you will be able to listen to the Annual Meeting live, submit questions and vote. We have designed the virtual Annual Meeting to provide stockholders with substantially the same opportunities to participate as if the Annual Meeting were held in person.

If you owned our common stock at the close of business on March 25, 2025, you may virtually attend and vote at the Annual Meeting. A list of stockholders eligible to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available for review during our regular business hours at our headquarters in Englewood, Colorado for the ten days prior to the date of the Annual Meeting for any purpose related to the Annual Meeting. The list of stockholders will also be available during the Annual Meeting through the Annual Meeting website for those stockholders who choose to attend.

Your vote is important. Whether or not you plan to virtually attend the Annual Meeting, we hope that you will vote as soon as possible. You may vote your shares via a toll-free telephone number or over the Internet. If you received a proxy card or voting instruction card by mail, you may submit your proxy card or voting instruction card by completing, signing, dating and mailing your proxy card or voting instruction card in the envelope provided. Any stockholder virtually attending the Annual Meeting may vote electronically at the Annual Meeting, even if you have already returned a proxy card or voting instruction card.
