Mr. John C.S. Lau, President & Chief Executive Officer of Husky Energy Inc., advised the completion of Husky’s Minnedosa Ethanol Plant in a ceremony at the Manitoba Legislative Building attended by the Minister of Science, Technology, Energy and Mines, the Hon. Jim Rondeau, and other dignitaries.
Husky’s new ethanol plant at Minnedosa will produce annually 130 million litres of ethanol and 130,000 tonnes of Distillers Dried Grain with Solubles (DDGS), a high protein feed supplement. At full production, the Company expects to purchase 350,000 tonnes of grain annually from local producers. The new plant replaces an existing plant which produced 10 million litres of ethanol per year.
