Ethanol

Mother Nature’s Fuel
 
Better for the environment

Husky is a pioneer in the production and marketing of ethanol-blended fuels. Each year, the company produces 260 million litres of ethanol from renewable resources such as lower-quality wheat and other grains.

     Natures Fuel
 
  • Ethanol-blended fuel lowers emissions by as much as 25% compared to traditional gasoline
  • Made from surplus grain, ethanol is a renewable resource
  • Use of ethanol-blended fuel helps conserve non-renewable petroleum resources
Better for your car
 
Better for the community
  • Ethanol has natural detergent properties that help keep your fuel system free from contaminants
  • It prevents pre-ignition, or those “pinging” or “knocking” sounds, which under severe conditions can cause serious engine damage
  • A natural “antifreeze”, ethanol will prevent your gas line from freezing
 
  • Husky boosts the Western Canadian economy by purchasing more than 2 million bushels of grain from farmers annually
