Harvesting the Potential of BIOMASS

As fossil fuel prices and consumption both continue rising, the search is on for alternative fuels. Fuel for vehicles is taking center stage, now that 67% of U.S. petroleum consumption goes toward fueling vehicles, according to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). Could biomass energy derived from plant matter supply a significant percentage of future transportation fuel? The answer is yes, according to Biomass as Feedstock for a Bioenergy and Bioproducts Industry: the Technical Feasibility of a Billion-Ton Annual Supply, a report funded by the DOE and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and issued by Oak Ridge National Laboratory in April 2005.
