"Corn Oil Extraction Systems ("COES") are an add-on technology, which has been thoroughly patented by a technology development company called GreenShift Corporation (OTCBB: GERS). According to information published recently by both GPRE and GERS, the two companies are working closely together on installing this technology onto all of GPRE's plants, which creates an extra $9 Million of profitability for every 110 million gallons per year of ethanol production capacity."
"With GPRE's capacity set to exceed 700 Million gallons per year after completing recently announced acquisitions, the COES technology add-on should increase GPRE's total annual profitability by upwards of $63 Million per year. For a company that reported $31.6 Million in profits for the first nine months of 2010, this $63 Million per year in extra profits amounts to more than a doubling of profitability for Green Plains Renewable Energy.
