Eloi Kummetz, the founder and namesake of the Kummetz Corp LLC has long been known as an environmentally friendly businessman. So, it was no surprise when he announced that he would begin initiatives to farm sugarcane for the production of ethanol in Brazil.

According to the Kummetz Corp LLC, ethanol is a fuel additive that may be incorporated into standard petroleum gasoline in amounts of up to 10% for a standard vehicle engine. As a renewable energy source, ethanol is less expensive than fossil fuels. The Kummetz Corp LLC says that ethanol is considered safer for the environment because it burns cleaner than oil-based fuel.
