Advanced biofuels hold tremendous promise for pushing the world toward a clean energy economy. And there are a number of types of advanced biofuels based on different feedstocks in various stages of development. Algae has emerged as the most desirable non-food feedstock for advanced biofuels, although there is other biomass also in development.
In mid-July, the U.S. Department of Energy made available $85 million from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act for development of algae-based biofuels and advanced, infrastructure-compatible biofuels. The week before, Exxon Mobil announced a $600 million venture with Synthetic Genomics to develop and comercialize algae-based biofuel.
In both cases, the idea is to bring together leading scientists and engineers from universities, private industry, and government to come up with ways to bring new biofuels to market faster and to get it to users more efficiently.
The biofuels industry includes a large number of people and companies with good ideas but with little funding or other means to test, develop, or deploy their materials and processes commercially.
- How long will it take to produce adequate amounts of algae or other non-food feedstocks for a sustainable biofuels industry?
- What are the price signals needed to make biofuels competitive with oil, gas and coal?
- What is the status of the Renewable Fuels Standard?
- What are the current, near-term and long-term markets for advanced biofuels, in the United States and worldwide?
- What is the status of infrastructure that is needed to get biofuels, as well as other renewable fuels, to where they are needed?
- Performance testing on advanced biofuels: Who has done what, and what are the ongoing programs? Are there any obstacles to using advanced biofuels as a drop-in fuel for automobiles, aircraft or marine engines, boilers?
- What is the government doing to help? Is it enough? And is it the right type of assistance?
