Cornhusker Energy is a privately-held company dedicated to adding value to central Nebraska's corn production by turning locally-grown corn into clean-burning ethanol.

The company currently produces more than 40 million gallons of ethanol annually at a plant in Lexington, Nebraska. Cornhusker Energy is committed to being a strong partner in the local community, a key player in the regional economy and a leader in Nebraska's ethanol industry. We employ 44 individuals, and growing, in rewarding professional careers and currently purchase more than 15 million bushels of locally-grown corn annually from producers and grain dealers, going to 50 million bushels in the near future. In addition to ethanol, Cornhusker Energy produces both wet and dry distillers grains, providing a feed source for local livestock producers.

Construction is currently in the works to expand the plant to 150 million gallons to help meet the growing national demand for domestic biofuels, which are the key components of our nation’s efforts to reduce reliance on foreign oil and improve air quality around the country.
