Ethanol Energy

Ethanol Energy a.s. operates a distillery at its site in Vrdy, near Čáslav in the Central Bohemian Region, about 12 km east of Kutná Hora. Since a 2010 modernisation that installed distillery technology, its main product is bioethanol, which the website says is used as an additive to automotive petrol. Its raw material is maize, and the company also produces DDGS (corn distillers' dried grains with solubles), corn distillers' mash, and technical corn oil obtained from syrup separation.

The company sells its outputs as bioethanol for fuel use and as feed and oil products for livestock and biofuel feedstock, according to the website. The site was previously used for beet sugar production for more than 140 years. The website lists ISCC sustainability and carbon certification, Responsible Care, GMP+ and a non-GMO certification.

The website states the company has existed as a regional industrial employer for more than 150 years and is registered as a joint-stock company (a.s.) founded on 30 September 1997. Current job postings are for production operators working shifts at the site and for an accountant. The website also presents the company as the only Czech producer of DDGS.

Product: Bioethanol for blending with automotive petrol, plus DDGS, corn distillers' mash and technical corn oil as feed and biofuel feedstock.
