Ethanol can be blended with petroleum gasoline to produce a cleaner, higher-octane fuel than regular gas.

Scientific evidence indicates global warming is taking place, caused in part by carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions from burning fossil fuels.

By replacing a portion of your regular gas with ethanol, you can help to reduce these emissions.

Ethanol is made from renewable materials such as wheat and other grains that are grown right here in Saskatchewan. In fact, any plant matter containing sugar or starch can be turned into ethanol.

Ethanol is an alternate source of energy. Replacing a portion of your gasoline with ethanol can help to reduce the use of fossil fuels.

Ethanol production will increase our market for grains. In 2008, our estimated ethanol production will require almost 32 million bushels of wheat.

Ethanol provides another use for lower grades of wheat. Damaged or winter wheat is often perfectly acceptable for ethanol production.

The construction and operation of ethanol plants will continue to create jobs for Saskatchewan workers and new employment in our rural communities.
