Dairy Distillery to Invest $41 Million in Michigan Ethanol Plant

Converting Milk Byproduct into Biofuel

Dairy Distillery, a Canadian company, has announced plans to invest $41 million in a new ethanol plant in Michigan. The facility will convert a byproduct of milk production into ethanol, a renewable fuel that can be used in vehicles. The plant is expected to be operational in early 2025.

Creating Green Energy from Milk Waste

The plant will use technology developed by Dairy Distillery to convert whey permeate, a byproduct of cheese production, into ethanol. This innovative process will help reduce waste and create a sustainable source of fuel.

The project has received a $25 million grant from the Michigan Strategic Fund. The plant will create new jobs and contribute to the state's economy.
